JavaScript works fine.
See :
http://www.allasp.net/enterkey.aspx You can use a slightly more native way to do this with :
SomeTextBox.Attributes.Add("onKeyPress",
"javascript:if (event.keyCode == 13) __doPostBack('" +
YourSubmitButton.UniqueID + "','')");
That should all go on one line...
"SomeTextBox" is the text box control,
while "YourSubmitButton" is the submit button.
The easiest way to get this behavior to work is to
include a hidden submit button anywhere in the page:
<input type="text" style="display:none">
Then, you don't need any Javascript at all.
I just added that line to the ASPNETFAQ.COM Search button.
Try it now. You'll see that hitting enter instead of clicking the "Search Now" works.
