Tries to emulate a tab key press of a real user.
Ever triggered the tab-key-event by javascript? Tab is usually handled by browser and will not get handle if you trigger the event by javascript. This is for security resons to prevent a script to tab e.g. into the browser's menu or into another frame or dev-tools ...
This script has an heuristic to find the next element to stop. It will trigger the keypress-Event and blur event on the active element and the focus-Event on the next element.
