Having a small problem with Safari and the tab key.

We have a BlueTooth barcode scanner and we'd like it to send a tab after the barcode.

What happens is the tab is inserted in the text box, instead of going to the next field on the web page.

If we plug a USB keyboard into the iPad, the exact same thing happens when we hit the tab key.

Safari and Notes have this problem, but in the Adobe Fill app and the Reminders app, the tab key doesn't behave this way.

Is there a way to change the behavior in Safari, or even system-wide?
