How to advance to the next form input when the current input has a value?

you just need to give focus to the next input field (by invoking focus()method on that input element), for example if you’re using jQuery this code will simulate the tab key when enter is pressed:

var inputs = $(':input').keypress(function(e){ 
    if (e.which == 13) {
       e.preventDefault();
       var nextInput = inputs.get(inputs.index(this) + 1);
       if (nextInput) {
          nextInput.focus();
       }
    }
});
