I'm using this on a form where scores are entered, to go to the next field, but if I make a mistake, I'd like to make it if I click the left arrow key it'll jump to the previous field and select the text in it... Thanks, -Roman This is great, but how do you make it to go backwards? I’m using this on a form where scores are entered, to go to the next field, but if I make a mistake, I’d like to make it if I click the left arrow key it’ll jump to the previous field and select the text in it…

Thought I'd post the amendment I made for my use (makes it repeat from the beginning): <code> // added :not(:disabled) // to selector // ... else { if (fields.length > 1) { fields.eq(0).focus(); } } this.attr("disabled", "disabled); return false; </code> thanks!

The find selector could actually be rewritten as: <pre lang="javascript" line="3"> .find(':input').not('[type=hidden]') </pre> Cheers, - Jonathan @Nodashi Great point! The find selector could actually be rewritten as:

3

.find(':input').not('[type=hidden]')

input with attribute type and value hidden are commonly use ;)
