I've done this before by trapping keydown and checking for a CR, and
then clicking a particular button based on which textbox the event
happened. However, I was wondering if there's a simpler way to trap a
carriage return in a textbox, and have it click a button?

In ASP.NET 2.0 the panel control has a new DefaultButton property.
Set this property to the ID of a button control and it will be the default
button when focus is in that panel.

Does this mean that the default button gets clicked when a carriage
return is pressed inside a textbox?
