Tab over?, do you mean tab out? If you always post on tab out, then
there is no reason to click the button. Actions are only fired from
command* components. Auto submit on an input text only generates a
value change, not an action.
Perhaps you should re-describe what exactly you want to do (don't
include implementation details, just what the users sees and how it
should behave)?
