Choosing a default button

[Ford Desperado]

Hi,

I have a ASP.Net page with several asp:textbox controls and 3
asp:button's
I want to specify 1 of these buttons as the default one, so that
whenever a user presses 'Enter' while a textbox is selected, the
handler for the default button is invoked

TIA
Ford

You can intercept the client side enter keypress event of the text box and
then do what you want using javascript code.
Here's a good example:

You could also try using this free control.

And here's a couple good articles on the subject:
