Hi george,
Thank you for using MSDN Newsgroup! My name is Steven, and I'll be
assisting you on this issue.
From your description, you are wanting to set the "default" button for
different entry fields on an ASP.NET web page so that when "enter" key is
pressed with different entry field on focus, different button will be fired
click event?
If there is anything I misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.
Well, I've reviewed the thread and found that Steve has provided serveral
good tech articles on this issue. I believe you may get detailed
information on those articles. And I've also read this one:
http://www.allasp.net/enterkey.aspx
And made a simple test page on this, it does works well. Here is the test
page code, you may try it out yourself to see whether it helps.
