I discovered by accident that if I use the Really Simple Validation (RSV) plugin, hitting enter in a form field advances to the next field just like hitting tab. I am working on an internal data entry form so this is a good thing.

My form fields look like this:

tagNum
enterDate
dueDate
Description

If I enter valid info in the tagNum field and hit enter, the field required message pops up for the enterDate field. At this point I hit enter again and the proper info is entered in the tagNum field and focus is in the enterDate field. This happens on down the form until I submit it by clicking the button to submit the form. If I enter invalid data in any field the proper warning pops up and I can correct it.

Does anyone have an idea of how to prevent the field required message poping up before focus shifts to the next field?

Thanks,  Jim
