Hola ...

How to jump to the next input with the enter key ?

Ex:

<form...>
   <input 1 >  <== I want to jump to input 2 with only one enter ?
   <imput 2 >
    pushbutton

</form>

Is it posible?

Best Regards

Yes it is possible, but it is browser dependant.  Not only do you have to
capture keystroke events, you also have to monitor event bubbling.  You
will have to write jscript code (which may be disabled by the client) and
you have to suddenly become aware when a submit or other button has focus.

In short, rather than spending 8 weeks working on a solution, just point
people at the 'standard' behaviour of tabbing through controls.
