focusNextItem(items [, reverse] [, loop])

Focuses the next item in the tab order.

Unless loop is set to true, then focus is applied to first element.

A list of elements that are selectable via keyboard navigation.
reverse boolean <optional>

If true, the operation is performed in reverse order; that is, from the last element in items to the first.
