Newbies Techphan Posted March 27, 2006 Newbies Share Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) Two questions... 1) Suppose I setup a field to contain a 3 digit (numeric) area code (USA, for phone numbers). Is it possible to "automatically" jump to the next field after the third numeric digit is entered? 2) Can the active field be made a different color from the rest of the fields (so the user always knows from the backgrund color which field they are entering data into)? Thank you. Edited March 27, 2006 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaRetta Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 1) Suppose I setup a field to contain a 3 digit (numeric) area code (USA, for phone numbers). Is it possible to "automatically" jump to the next field after the third numeric digit is entered? No sorry, I believe you'll need an event-trigger plugin. But there are many to choose from and a few good ones are free. Why are you against a User hitting ENTER or TAB? 2) Can the active field be made a different color from the rest of the fields (so the user always knows from the backgrund color which field they are entering data into)? Yes. See attached. InstantBackground.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies Techphan Posted March 28, 2006 Author Newbies Share Posted March 28, 2006 Why are you against a User hitting ENTER or TAB? Personal preference. When I order an item online (or enter a long serial number), I just prefer the field to automatically "jump" to the next field after entering a fixed number (area code, 5-digit ZIP, etc). Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
