Please use real words when posting to the forums. Abbreviations such as "becoz" in place of "because" only serve to make your posts more difficult to read and less likely to generate useful responses.

Please read this for more information.

use onkeydown instead of onkeypress [guessing that is what you are using.] Cancel the event and than set focus to the next box.

Cancel it by using return false and you can focus using focus() on the element
