I have a form with 4 text fields for an IPv4 addy entry in which I want the focus to move to the next text field when the user presses the ascii # 46 period.
The following JS / jQ (which I basically shot from: Move the cursor to the next text Field, press Enter ) works for ascii codes for input (13), esc, and even char (32) space:
<script language ="javascript" type="text/javascript" >
function ipfNext() {
$( document ).ready( function() {
$( '#formContent .inputTextIpf').keydown( function( e ) {
if( e.keyCode == 46 ) {
$( ':input:eq(' + ( $( ':input' ).index( this ) + 1 ) + ')' ).focus();
return false;
}
});
});
}
</script>
but it doesn't seem to work for regular ascii printed codes like 46 .
. How can I change the code so that regular ascii print characters trigger a field tab when clicked?
HTML input field that works fine with ascii control characters but doesn't print characters
<input type="text" id="ipf1" name="ipf1" class="inputTextIpf" maxlength="3" onkeyup="return ipfNext();" value=
<?php
if ( !empty( $_SESSION[ 'ipf1' ] ) ) {
echo '"' . $_SESSION[ 'ipf1' ] . '"> . ';
} else {
echo '""> . ';
}
?>
