I have an update form with 15 fields. Rather than have them all one below the other, I want to have 7 data fields on the left, and 8 on the right.

How would I do this?

Thanks

You are always free to rearrange the HTML file anyway you like, just keep
the placement of <!-- BEGIN --> {something} <!-- END --> markers in their
same relative positions.

I have successfully built the columns, but the tab order is now across, whereas I wanted to be able to tab down the first column, then down the second.:*)

each input field in HTML has a possible attribute "tabindex" setting this
sets the position in tabbing order.
manually setting the values should give you the navigation you like.

googled: "html field order in form"

Quote :
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#adef-tabindex
tabindex = number [CN]
This attribute specifies the position of the current element in the
tabbing order for the current document. This value must be a number between
0 and 32767. User agents should ignore leading zeros.
The tabbing order defines the order in which elements will receive focus
when navigated by the user via the keyboard. The tabbing order may include
elements nested within other elements.

Elements that may receive focus should be navigated by user agents according
to the following rules:

1.. Those elements that support the tabindex attribute and assign a
positive value to it are navigated first. Navigation proceeds from the
element with the lowest tabindex value to the element with the highest
value. Values need not be sequential nor must they begin with any particular
value. Elements that have identical tabindex values should be navigated in
the order they appear in the character stream.
2.. Those elements that do not support the tabindex attribute or support
it and assign it a value of "0" are navigated next. These elements are
navigated in the order they appear in the character stream.
3.. Elements that are disabled do not participate in the tabbing order.
