Enter Key act like Tab Key

[Angelo Babudro]

I have several radcombo boxes on my form I am trying to make the enter key act like  the tab key. I added javascript to the body of the form to force this and it worked for everything except the RadComboBoxes...I have tried capturing the OnClientKeyPressingEvent and setting it to the following javascript function...This part works:

 

 

function HandleKeyPress(comboBox, eventArgs)

 

{

 

//identify the enter key:

 

 

if (eventArgs.get_domEvent().keyCode == 13)

 

{

 

    ///What code goes here        

 

}

}

So my question is what code do I implemement to determine which combobox fired the event and get the focus to move to the control...I have tried several different versions of code but nothing seems to work.


Thanks.

Hello Angelo Babudro,

You need to find the next control which will receive the focus (a combo, a textbox, whatever) and focus it.
Here is a sample code:

function HandleKeyPress(comboBox, eventArgs)
{
//identify the enter key:
if (eventArgs.get_domEvent().keyCode == 13)
{
   var nextCombo = $find("<%= MyNextCombo.ClientID %>");
   var input = nextCombo.get_inputDomElement();
   input.focus();
}

}

I hope this helps.
