Default button when hit Enter

That's where it's set to POST to then..... did you specify a different page
?

Hi all,

I have a number of imagebuttons on a page and when the user enters data into
a text field I would like for the page to submit. How would I do that?

Currently, if the user hits Enter, it just posts to the server and returns
to the same page.

Thanks
Harry

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

You could also try using this free control.

Thanks Steve,
Page.RegisterHiddenField("__EVENTTARGET", btnSearch.ClientID) did the trick.
