essentially the script looks like this.
<script>
function goTab(next,max){
len = event.srcElement.value.length
if (len == max){
eval("document.formname." + next + ".focus()");
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="formname">
<input type="text" name="first" onkeypress="goTab('second',3)" size="3">
<input type="text" name="second" size="2">
</form>

Subject: [KCFusion] JavaScript question
> I have an area of my form that is set up for a date entry as follows:
>
> __/__/__
> mm dd yy
>
> I would like to use JavaScript (or something better) to detect when 2
> characters have been entered into the 'mm' field, and then to set focus to
> the 'dd' field. (then the same for the dd-> yy field) Essentially to the
> end user, it is as simple as just typing a string of 6 characters instead
of
> having to 'Tab' through or click the next field. How does one achieve
this?
