Another way to handle the date validation is using the properties built
into <cfform> with <cfinput>.

I have problems with users doing bizarre stuff every time I build a Web
form. As a result, my development process now includes these final
steps:

-Look carefully at the form.
-What irrational things can be done to break the form?
-Build error traps for all these irrational things.

That is a very good point Bryan.  I will test this script with
onKeyPress as
well, but not for this instance.  The reason that I needed this script
in
the first place is the fact that the end user for this particular app
has no
'gut reaction' as you call it.  They don't know that you can easily get
to
the next field with the Tab key, and I was just in pain when I watched
them
testing it yesterday typing in 2 characters, going to the mouse, aiming,
and
clicking, rinsing and repeating.

:P

One quick thing to mention is that using the onkeyup event calls autoTab
at
a moment when the users gut reaction is to hit the tab key resulting in
focus to the third element when the second element in the chain was the
desired next element to be filled in. Use onkeypress and the user will
be
tabbed to the next form element when they mistakenly do not hit the tab
key
at the correct time.

My 2 cents
