There are nav buttons.  Each datum contains a couple of dozen fields.
If any change (flag set on exitfield), the datum is dumped to the
database.

If someone selects a single field and changes the value, and then
clicks for the next datum, neither closeField nor exitFIeld are
called.  I need to have closefield called if the data has changed,
thus the wish to send a tab to the field.
