Default action

[Not Active]

I would like to have a form accept the enter key asthe default action. I have a button that submits the form and it works fine. I can trap the keypress event and call the click method on the button but this causes the page to repost to the server where as clicking on the actual button does not. Anyone have thoughts on this?

If your target browser is IE you could do something like this: function MyKeyHandler() { if(correctKeyPressed) { var btn = document.getElementById("myBtn"); btn.click(); //Simulates a click by causing the onclick event to fire. } }
