hi
i have this code using ENTER key instead of TAB to move on next form element which work fine on the IE but not working Firefox.
<input type="text" name="givename" onKeyDown="if(event.keyCode==13) event.keyCode=9;" />
<input type="text" name="surname" onKeyDown="if(event.keyCode==13) event.keyCode=9;" />

Seaching some page it says: "This is not working in Mozilla because the `event` object is a Microsoft proprietary trick". So what then is the same function on Mozilla? :thumbsup:

function tabE(obj,e){
var e=(typeof event!='undefined')?window.event:e;// IE : Moz
if(e.keyCode==13){
var ele = document.forms[0].elements;
for(var i=0;i<ele.length;i++){
var q=(i==ele.length-1)?0:i+1;// if last element : if any other
if(obj==ele[i]){ele[q].focus();break}
}
return false;
}
}
