<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- Begin
nextfield = "UserID"; // name of first box on page
netscape = "";
ver = navigator.appVersion; len = ver.length;
for(iln = 0; iln < len; iln++) if (ver.charAt(iln) == "(") break;
netscape = (ver.charAt(iln+1).toUpperCase() != "C");
function keyDown(DnEvents) { // handles keypress
// determines whether Netscape or Internet Explorer
k = (netscape) ? DnEvents.which : window.event.keyCode;
if (k == 13) { // enter key pressed
if (nextfield == 'done')
{document.thisform.submit();
return true; // submit, we finished all fields
}else { // we're not done yet, send focus to next box
eval('document.thisform.' + nextfield + '.focus()');
return false;
}
}
}
document. // work together to analyze keystrokes
if (netscape) document.captureEvents(Event.KEYDOWN|Event.KEYUP);
// End -->
</script>
Then you mark the input tags like this:
<input type="text" name="UserID" size="20" tabindex="1"
onfocus="document.thisform.UserID.select();nextfield='Password';">
<input type="password" name="Password" size="20" tabindex="2"
onfocus="document.thisform.Password.select();nextfield='done';">
I hope this helps. It has worked for me in my applications.

This will not work. This is one of those areas where you working against
browser capabilities, not HTML specs, so there's no magic answer. If it's
not submitting on Enter, you could try playing with some event handlers in
each of your form elements; however, with events such as onKeyPress, there's
little or no chance of making it work in both browsers.---
