ASP.NET 2 Web Login Control On Page Load

[Daniel Friend]

I have a page with the Login Control. If I type the user name and password
and click the enter key the page reloads without doing the
login.authenicate.... if I click the actual login button, everything works
fine. How to I have it work that if the person does not press the login
button, but enters the username and password, do the login.authenicate?

Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan,

Welcome to the MSDN newsgroup.

As for the Login Control, by default it is in encapsulated mode so that we
can not quite customize its control collection or template. However, you
can use the "Convert to template" menu in the design-view's smartTag. After
converting to the template mode, we can edit the html template of the login
control. e.g: we can add some client-side "onkeypress" event handler code
for the username and password textbox and let the handler programmatically
get the "loginbutton" element and call its "click" method to submit the
login form.

Hope this helps.
