What exactly you want??

Do you want to move focus without pressing Tab, just be detecting that all data is filled? Also trivial though...

Also, tag it: WPF, Forms, ASP.NET, what?

Solution 1

Set the tabindex's appropriately.
As a result, the user should just be able to press tab and control should focus to the next textbox.

Call this from page load:

txtFirst.AddTextBoxAttribute("onkeyup", "javascript: TextBoxFocus()");
txtFirst.AddTextBoxAttribute("onblur", "javascript: TextBoxFocus()");

And write this script,

<script type="text/javascript">
  function TextBoxFocus() {
            var length = $("[id$=_txtFirst_txt]").val().length;
            if (length == 8) {
                $("[id$=_txtSecond_txt]").focus();
            }           
        }
</script>

Lets Say that you have 4 textboxes, here is the code that will work...

Cheers :)

VB

Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox2.TextChanged, TextBox3.TextChanged, TextBox4.TextChanged, TextBox5.TextChanged

        Dim txtbox As Control = DirectCast(sender, TextBox)

        If txtbox.Text.Length = 4 Then
            Me.GetNextControl(ActiveControl, True).Focus()

        End If
    End Sub
