How can I trigger a submit on my form when the enter key is pressed

Platform: ASP.NET| Category: Miscellaneous

Add this to the body element:


<body MS_POSITIONING='GridLayout' onkeypress='if(window.event.keyCode==13){ document.Form1.submit();}'>
...
</body>

Also check out Andy Smith’s DefaultButton Control which triggers submit selectively on one of many buttons based on the context.
