Web Forms :: Pressing Enter Fires ImageButton Click Event?
Mar 22, 2011
OK, been burning up Google and Bing trying to figure out a good solution to this problem, and so far, I feel like I've taken a dive down a rabbit hole - I'm just waiting on the Queen of Hearts and the Mad Hatter to show up. Alice is kinda cute, but unfortunately, she didn't have any good suggestions, either.
Here's the scenario - I have a User Control on a Child Page that has a Master Page assigned. The control is for logging in to the system, so it contains two text boxes, a couple of links to password recovery and registration, and an ImageButton to handle submission of the username/password entered in the text boxes.
Everything works just as expected when the user actually takes the mouse and clicks on the ImageButton control.
Things don't work so well when the user enters a username and password and then presses the Enter/Return key.
While debugging, VS2005 (I know...ugh!) will stop at the LoginButtonClick event, and seems to run the code. Of course, the .Text property of the two input controls was empty, but the Request.Form collection had the values burried within the collection of Keys.
So, a little bit of digging got me to the point where they can login using either the Enter key or clicking on the ImageButton. So, everything seems like it's good, right? Nope, not so fast.
When I enter a username/password combo that's designed to fail authentication, the code will step through setting the error message, etc, but that information never makes it to the point where it's visible to the user.
I'm not seeing any extra postbacks (obvious ones, anyway), but for some reason, when the page goes to redraw when it's in a "failed" state, the notations just simply aren't there.
Below is the code in the User Control that handles the actual authentication routine. All controls, such as the Label with ID "message", are local to the User Control, so I don't think it's a FindControl("message") problem or something similar...just so bizarre that it disappears seeming without reason.
I'm sure this has been asked before I just did not know how to ask it to get the forums to show up the right answer. I have a master page with a search box and then a content page with an input box and a submit button. As I'm using the program, I as a keyboard lover always hit enter after typing text into a text field. The issue is that when I'm typing in the input box and I press enter, the search boxes button will steal this enter. How can I divide the two asp.net form elements so that when I'm typing in the search box and press enter, the search button is invoked and when I'm typing in the input box and press enter the input button is invoked? An example of this happening is in the code below
i have searched this forum about this pbm. But People posted about Dynamic Image Button .. In my case, this is a static design only. I have a login page with image button as the Login button. I set Panel's Default button to that image button. onclick event Sometime fires, sometime not firing when pressing enter on the password field..If this happens once, then even if i click on the Image button also, the event is not firing.. but the form is post acking....Strange! i have removed panel's default button and wrote this line instead on page_load..
[Code]....
Still, the same pbm persists. Even i click on the imagebutton without pressing enter key also, the same pbm comes sometimes...I couldnt trace why.
I'm using a ModalPopupExtender to display a login screen when an ImageButton (called Post) is clicked.The dialog pops up as expected and performs all the correct validations. When the user presses the Enter key, this causes the Login button to fire its Click event as it should.The issue I get is that I have another ImageButton on the main page. After the user presses Enter in the login and the page logs the user in, it does not fire the server click even for the initial post button that brought up the login, it fires the click of another ImageButton instead.
I have two search textboxes and two corresponding buttons on my web page.One of the textboxes is a default textbox coming from the .master page and the other one is local to the page.Now,when I enter some text into the local textbox and press enter, the event of the master page button gets fired instead of that of the local button.How do I fix this issue? I tried to shift focus to the local button and on the text changed event but the master page button event is always the last one which is getting fired. I tried changing both the buttons to LinkButtons but then enter doesn't work!A
I have a few sections in my code with a button to do something different in each. I'm pretty sure the user would press enter to submit the section, but I would like to handle it nonetheless.To handle it, I put the "sections" into Panels, and set the default button for each. There is a total of 4 panels and default buttons set to their respective included buttons.When I press enter in 3 of them, the correct event fires, but not in one (it calls a different button).I put MsgBoxes (for testing) at the beginning of each server event to see which is being called, and it's not the correct one.I might as well post the code, but it's fairly simple. I don't know if the accordion affects it at all, but it doesn't seem like it should...
[Code]....
Sorry, I hate when people post way too long code, but most of it doesn't exactly apply, so just focus on the panels.When I press enter when in focus in on a textbox in BudgetReportsPanel2 and press enter, the UpdateButton event is called instead.
I have a submit button which fires some code, the problem is I always have to click the button twice before it fires?
I have a number of dropdowns on my page, a number of other buttons all with unique id's, a postback is always caused on the page before the the submit button is clicked.
I dont know what happened but none of my buttons or linkbuttons causes a postback anymore. I have dragged a few updatepannels on the page but the linkbutton concerned is not enclosed within an update pannel. when I click it there is just no postback happening anymore. I set the debugger at Page_load but...its not reached. I used firebug to analyse the http requests. there is none. its like those are not considered buttons anymore.
I have the following problem. I have a user control with its own events and procedures. I added this control to a page programmatically. It appears as it should but when you click a button on the user control. the control disappears from the page.
I have a LinkButton which fires an OnClick event to update some Labels; however, after the first firing of OnClick, it won't fire again when I click another (or the same) LinkButton which runs the same OnClick event. (It's a list of people, each a LinkButton, and clicking on one brings up their details)
If I leave the page a few minutes, it will work again, almost as if whatever was preventing OnClick firing timed-out. Of course, this won't be any use to the users!
This is my ASP.NET code for the LinkButtons (encapsulated in a DataList):
[Code]....
All the connections work, the data is retrieved, etc, so everything except the OnClick firing works. I've done a search of the internet and the forum, and found this seems to have been a long-standing problem since the first ASP.NET, but there is no solution for ASP.NET 3.5. Does anyone know what causes this, or where I might be going wrong?
When i press "enter" i dont want the first button that is on my page getting fired.
This is a imagebutton. I did try with a javascript function that checks the event keycode but this always returns 13.<script language="javascript"> function noEnter() { if (event.keyCode == 13) { return false; } } </script>
When i add OnClientClick="return false;" then you can't press the button at all.<asp:ImageButton ID="backButton" runat="server" CausesValidation="false" ImageAlign="AbsBottom" ImageUrl="../../images/Global/back.gif" OnClientClick="GoBack2_Click" OnClick="GoBack_Click" OnClientClick="return false;"/>
When i click with the mouse on the button the Goback function does not get called.
So what i'm trying to get here that the imagebutton need to be clicked with a mouseclick and not with and enter keystroke.
I try to add a new ImageButton to my panel in a dynamic way -when the user click on button in the page.When i create the ImageButton i register to the click event.when the page load - i can to see the ImageButton but when i click on him is not fire the event.
I know this question has been asked before. But for some reason I can't find the exact answer I need for my problem. My problem is as follows:
I am creating a web page (The one posted is just an easy example) that creates multiple ImageButtons on one page via a loop.I have tried many other ways (for example, create instance in form_load and pass to the WriteHtml() method) but I can't figure out a way to complete this. In this example I have 10 buttons that need to be able to be clicked.
I have page on which I've a login control in which I've a subnit button. The problem is this that when I refresh the that page the submit button or any button that was clicked last before page refresh gets its click event automatically fired.
I have an aspx page that is wrapped with an UpdatePanel control, users can post comments and delete them later, when the user clicks the delete for the first time it deletes successfully but if he wants to delete another comment, it works only after two clicks on the button.the delete button is inside a web user control that is added dynamically at run time.
I have a databound repeater and in this repeater is an imageButton. How do I pass info from the database into the click event? For example, I've got the description, heading and price fields populating labels, but want the id to go into the imagebuttons click event in order to build a querystring.
I am trying to create a custom GridView with a header toolbar at the top that will contain icons to export the grid view to different formats like excel, word, etc.. The problem is, I cannot get the method to fire that is assigned to handle the click event for the corresponding Image Button. The page posts back, but the code I have in the method to handle the click event does not fire. I have followed examples in other posts and from what I can tell I have followed what others have done. Can somebody take a look at see if they can find something that I am doing wrong.
im here trying to find a solution to this problem, in a form i have a textbox and a button to do a basic search in a database, so the user types the search criteria in the textbox and then clicks on the button to search, this works just fine, the problem is when the user enter the search criteria and then press enter inside the textbox, in this scenario the user gets to the login page, its a strange behavior, its like its loggin me out of the web application, im using form authentication in asp.net with vb.net
i have trying this to disable the textbox onkeypress event, but it doesnt seem to work:
I've a Username and Password TextBoxes, and more than one ImageButton in the page, so while I type the password, press enter, it presses another ImageButton than the Login ImageButton in my page.
How can I choose which ImageButton function to fire when pressing Enter while in the Password TextBox?
iam having four textbox and i have one label and i disable it .after entering in all textbox and i click submit button label is showing as "sucessfully inserted" and then if i focus on any textbox the label should disable and i press enter should not enable label and i pressing tab should not enable label.
I have a grid view which is placed in update panel and when i am trying to click outside the page and press enter the first row in my grid view is getting focus.What m looking for is that on pressing enter nothing should happen in the page.
I have a button in gridview footer template ....Wat i need is on gridview item template last textbox of the row , i will press enter key then the enter key should be focus to the button and button click event should be fired ......
I have a grid view with item template ....In the footer template of the gridview i have a button ... On clicking the button a new item template row is created .Wat i need is , by pressing the enter key i need to add new row .... It is already adding new row on button click .... The same should be done on pressing the enter key on the last row of the gridview item template .....
I have an ImageButton setup, where in the OnInit event, I'm setting the Click event
btnJoinNow.Click += new ImageClickEventHandler(btnJoinNow_Click);
On the client-side, I have setup a jQuery click event which is to fire of a hitwise tracking event only when the button is pressed. The problem I'm having is that it seems that the button event is beating the javascript and not tracking. I need to put a pause of 1 sec before the imagebutton event fires server-side. I've tried the following, but always fires. I've also tried e.preventDefault(), but that just stops the postback altogether.
