Enter behavior..? 1

[kenjoswe]

Hi all,

How can I get the 'Enter' button to behave the same way as the 'Tab' button on a Web-Form?

u have to write a code that will capture the KeyCode, try this for a start:
<input type=&quot;text&quot; onkeydown=&quot;alert(event.keyCode())&quot;>

this will give a series of ascii values, capture the value of enter and do whatever u wanna do...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

...
Error: 'The object cannot handle this action'

<input type=&quot;text&quot; onkeydown=&quot;alert(event.keyCode)&quot;>

But how can I convert keycode=13 (Enter) to keycode 9 (Tab)?

}

You may also want to try this...

window.document.onkeydown = convertEnterToTab;

function convertEnterToTab() {

if (window.event.keyCode == 13) {
window.event.keyCode = 9;
}
}
