If none of the previous suggestions help, it may also be useful to
pastie your js function.
The prior suggestions solved the initial trouble (IE seeming to
intercept the <return> key and submit the form anyway), but I
ran into more IE vs Firefox misbehavior down the road. It may
be a simple problem, I don't claim to know what I'm doing when
it comes to javascript :-) In the end, I pretty
much had to punt due to time constraints. However, the js
is (childNodes commented part failed on one of the browsers,
I forgot which):
function makeEnterLikeTab(elem, event){
var nextIndex = Number.MAX_VALUE;
var index = 0;
if(event.keyCode == 13){
var current = elem.tabIndex;
// probably really want to just get nodes for this form, not
// entire doc. Something like elem.parentNode.childNodes ?
formFields = document.getElementsByTagName("input");
for(i=0;i<formFields.length;i++){
if(formFields[i].nodeType == 1){
var tabIndex = formFields[i].getAttribute("tabindex");
tabIndex = parseInt(tabIndex);
if((tabIndex < nextIndex) && (tabIndex > current)){
nextIndex = tabIndex;
index = i;
}
}
}
formFields[index].setAttribute('autocomplete', 'off');
formFields[index].focus();
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
return false;
}
}
And it is called on each applicable form element like this:
:onKeyPress => "makeEnterLikeTab(this, event);"
Thanks all.
