Check out:

You'll see that the behaviour you are observing is a known behaviour of IE 6
under certain circumstances.

the page also features code to solve the problem.

Cheers,

does it work when clicked with mouse.
otherwise check the button event handler. might be something wrong with it.

As adviced before does it fire when the mouse is clicked?
Ajit i had the same issue sometime ago and what you can do is just add an
extra textbox
and hide it it should fire when you hit enter
<INPUT type="text" style="VISIBILITY: hidden;POSITION: absolute">
Hope that heps
