Changing the default of the enter key to tab in ASP.NET MVC

I am trying to change the enter key to tab in asp.net mvc.

Whenever I pressed 'Enter', the page refreshed so I used the following code and it does work mostly because the enter keypress doesn't submit the form..although I couldn't change the keycode to 9 as when I press 'tab' nothing happens:

What I have tried:

<pre lang="Javascript">
     
$(document).on("keypress", 'form', function (e) {
                var code = e.keyCode || e.which;
                if (code == 13) {
                    
                    e.preventDefault();
                    window.event.keyCode = 9;
                    return false;
                }
            });

The following line of code does not work:

window.event.keyCode = 9;
