Automatically change the field

Question

I have four fields in a form. I want that the focus move automatically to the next field when I insert 5 characters in the first field of the form. Is it possible?

Answer 1

If you want to accept the last character and then jump to the next field before typing the next character, you need to add the current accepted keystroke.
// document level script
function goNext(oItem, oEvent, cName) {
/* Tab to next field when field character limit is reached.
   Includes alpha fields and case change.
   Includes error trapping and displays on JavaScript console
   the error, field where error occurred and next field name.
   parameters:
   oItem  - required - item where fields  to process reside
   oEvent - required - field being processed
   cName  - required - next field's name
   Place call to this function in the fields custom format.
   The user responsible for checking format of field.
   Default number check is for the standard numeric values.
   "0-9" for single character fields and includes sign values for multi character fields.
   Call for number field:
   goNextAlpha(this, event,"NextField");
try{ // error catcher
  AFNumber_Keystroke(0, 0, 0, 0, "",true); // or other keystroke validation;
  if (oEvent.rc && AFMergeChange(oEvent).length == oEvent.target.charLimit) oItem.getField(cName).setFocus();
  } catch(eMsg) { // trap error display error message, field in and next field
app.beep(3); // beep
} finally {  // always run
return; }
// Custom keystroke JavaScirpt
goNext(this, event, "NameNextField");
The line
  if (oEvent.rc && AFMergeChange(oEvent).length == oEvent.target.charLimit) oItem.getField(cName).setFocus();
Takes into account the previously entered and the current keystrokes along with the keystroke format check.
