Is there a way that I can catch the key press at page (form) level? I
have a page with about 15 controls. but there is only one submit
button. I want to do form submit when user press the enter button.

thanks
 
Hi,

In the body tag of your page add this:

onkeypress="CheckLoginSubmit();"

Then put this in the <head> section of your page:

<script language="javascript">
function CheckLoginSubmit() {
if (event.keyCode == 13) {
document.getElementById("btnLogin").focus();
}
}
</script>

Now, when the Enter key is hit it will switch focus to the button and cause
a submit. Good luck! Ken.
