# Enter & Backspace Bindings (↩, ⌫)

## Setup for Enter Binding (↩)

**Attribute:** `sf-bind-enter`

**Values:** `true`, `false`

**Where:** Applied to navigation elements

Binds the Enter key to trigger the 'next' action on forms. For custom behavior, apply directly to a specific button or link with navigation directives like `next` or `goto=logic()`.

{% hint style="info" %}
By default Enter Binding is **enabled globally** (binds to 'next' navigation elements).

**Override Default:** To customize, assign `sf-bind-enter="true"` or `sf-bind-enter="false"` on specific navigation elements to control its behavior explicitly.

{% endhint %}

**HTML Example**

```html
<!-- Next button with Enter key binding enabled -->
<button sf-bind-enter="true" sf-goto="next">
  Next Step
</button>
```

## Setup for Backspace Binding (⌫)

**Attribute:** `sf-bind-backspace`

**Values:** `true`, `false`

**Where:** Applied to navigation elements

Binds the Backspace key to trigger the 'back' action, allowing users to navigate to the previous form step.

{% hint style="info" %}
By default Backspace Binding is **enabled globally** (binds to 'back', 'previous', 'prev' navigation elements)

**Override Default:** Assign `sf-bind-backspace="true"` or `sf-bind-backspace="false"` to specifically enable or disable this behavior on certain elements.

{% endhint %}

**HTML Example**

```html
<!-- Back button with Backspace key binding disabled -->
<button sf-bind-backspace="false" sf-goto="back">
  Previous Step
</button>

```

## Key Considerations

* **Multiple Bindings:** If multiple navigation elements are eligible for key bindings, the first encountered in the DOM order is used.
* **Conflict Resolution:** Explicit attribute settings on elements take precedence over default behaviors to ensure fine-grained control.
