How can I set the overridedefaultbutton to tab in asp.net?

Question

How can I set the overridedefaultbutton to Tab so that pressing Enter tabs to the next input field, and doesn't cause a postback?

Answer 1

Try this jQuery:

$('input').keydown(function(e){
    if (e.keyCode == 13){
      $(":input:eq(" + $(":input").index(this) + 1 + ")");
      return false;
    }
    return true;
});

It should add the onkeydown method to all elements of type input. Then if the e.keyCode is the enter key (13) then it will focus on the next element of type input.
