Auto Jump To Next Input When Fill X Characters - jQuery join_inputs

join_inputs is a jQuery plugin for creating a user-friendly input group where the cursor (caret) automatically moves to the next input field when reaching a specified maxlength (after x characters are filled).

Suitable for credit card input, phone number input, pin code input, and any other UI component that need to integrate multiple input fields.

Keyboard Accessibility:

• Left/Right Arrows: Moves the focus between joined input fields.
• Backspace: Removes what you've typed across all input fields.
• Home/End: Moves the focus to the first/last input field.

How to use it:

1. Create a group of input fields with the required maxlength attribute.

<div id="credit-card-number">
  <input type="number" maxlength="4" />
  <input type="number" maxlength="4" />
  <input type="number" maxlength="4" />
  <input type="number" maxlength="4" />
</div>

2. Insert the join_inputs plugin after the latest jQuery library (slim build).

<script src="/path/to/cdn/jquery.slim.min.js"></script>
<script src="/path/to/join_inputs.jquery.min.js"></script>

3. Call the function joinInputs on the input and the plugin will do the rest.

$(function(){
  $('#credit-card-number input').joinInputs();
});
