Hi,
after the OnCLick event, when I am in the function that deal with the
event, I want to retrieve the control that had the focus on the page?
How can I do this please?
Thanks in advance.

Do you mean a server-side event handler? Then it gets a parameter "sender"
which is the pointer on the control that caused the event.

Actually, when I am on my page and that I click the "ENTER" key and
that I have several buttons with onclick event, I cannot know from the
sender parameter which control (textbox or dropdownlist for instance)
had the "focus". This is what I need to know. Thanks
 
You mean when you hit "ENTER" key on the keyboard? "Click" refers to mouse
actions and for them focus moves to the control you click.
