Automatically move the cursor to the next input after entering a certain number of chars in the current input

I have a requirement where the user has to enter input into several input fields. Upon entering the required number of characters in each field, the cursor needs to automatically move to the next field so that the user doesn't need to use tab or the mouse. How do we achieve this? I have tried doing a Set Focus action on a OnChange event but that doesn't seem to be working. Please suggest.

I dont think there is a Pega specific way to achieve this. You would have to write your own JavaScript  after defining the "Maxlength" on the property. There are lot of JavaScript samples on the net for this feature.
