Prevent Early Form Submission by Hijacking the Enter Key
A customer asked me to create a timecard form a few years ago. Everything with the form worked great but users would mistakenly press the enter key before their form was completed. They asked that I make the enter key move the cursor to the next input instead of submitting the form. This is how I’d do that using MooTools javascript.
