Html - Pressing ENTER In A Textbox And Form Submits?
Sep 4, 2010
it's a simple question and yet i couldn't figure how this works.I created an aspx page without any master page.Put one text box on the form.then use Internet Explorer 8 and visit that page.typed something and hit ENTER on the keyboard. The form submits (judging by that page being refreshed). I didn't even put any buttons on the form. Just the textbox. What triggers the postback?I further added one < asp:Button > next to the textbox and wired the button to see if it's been clicked.
i repeat the same thing, typed something in the textbox and hit ENTER on the keyboard. The form submitted but the button wasn't click. What's happening? How the postback is triggered if it's not from the button?
This is happening in Mozila Firefox too except that when i added a button on the page, the button will be hit when ENTER on the keyboard is pressed.Can anyone shed some light as to why the button i added didn't respond to the ENTER on the keyboard in IE8?
I have a form that I am using with jquery for an application... everything is working fine but I have one issue....I do not want the form to submit when the user presses the enter key... if they press the enter key it will reset the whole sequence and I am running through an array that is placed in the system memory of the client(client-side javascript)is there a way to capture this event properly? Are there other ways that could submit the form?
I have two textboxes and one Button control.....In first TextBox when press enter key moves to next textbox(Barcode) and when i press enter in barcode textbox it fires the button click event......till that its ok....But what happening after fireing the Button click even on enter in Barcode Textbox its going back to focus on first textbox.........But i want this to stay in same Barcode TextBox to scan more barcodes.
(e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.charCode); var key = e.which; if (key == 13) { e.preventDefault(); var nxtIdx = $inp.index(this) + 1; $(":input:text:eq(" + nxtIdx + ")").focus(); }
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?
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 page with multiple textboxes and each has a button associated with it. This works as a search 'hub', I suppose, where the user can search by ID, name etc. When entering a search term for e.g. name however, pressing enter 'clicks' the very first button on the page (ID search), causing an error if the associated textbox is empty (which it would be if someone meant to search by name). I have attempted to rectify this using JQuery, and have written the following:
I'm simply using the click event so that I can monitor where focus is redirected, but eventually I would use .keypress. However, nothing happens upon clicking a textbox and I can't see for the life of me what is wrong with the JQuery. To elaborate on the problem, the .NET code used looks similar to the following throughout the page.
When I hit the enter key, when the input box has focus - the form submits. If I add another input box it doesn't submit. How can I avoid the auto submit when there's only one input box?
When I click the text box i notice that the logout button on my master page gets focus. So if the user types something in the textbox and then presses enter/return (a common reaction it appears) the user inadvertantly logs themselves out as the logout button is triggered.
I'm currently building a simple chat application and I have everything working real smooth except for one thing, and this problem is only in IE as far as I know (in firefox there is no problem).
In my chat application I have the textbox where the user writes the messages to the chat and the button that sends this message togheter in an updatepanel (so that there is no visible postback when pressing the button). I also have in the form tag "defaultbutton=" set to the button. The problem is that when the user uses Internet explorer and presses Enter instead of pressing the button with the mouse that after the 2 first times he/she does this causes the textbox to stop focus on it, which it shouldnt do as in the end of the button the code says it should focus, which works the 2 first times for some reason.heres the code where the problem exists:
aspx:
form id="form1" runat="server" defaultbutton="Button1"> <asp:ScriptManager ID="scriptManager" runat="server">
I have an asp.net page which has a panel with default button and update panel and dropdownlist inside the update panel. While I fill the form when I select an item with up/down keys and press enter to select it the form is being submitted. How can I fix this?
EDIT
Some code:
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="sdsCountries" runat="server" ConnectionString="cs" SelectCommand="SELECT CountryID, Title FROM Countries"/> <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCountries" runat="server" DataSourceID="sdsCountries" DataValueField="CountryID" DataTextField="Title" AutoPostBack="True" OnSelectedIndexChanged="ddlCountries_SelectedIndexChanged"/>.......
I have a textbox which I need to enter html code into (like < strong> or < em> for example).The trouble is this is causing an error writing this back to the database. A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (tbVOther="< strong>testIs there a way around this without turning off the request validation setting?
I have a login page inside of a master page. On the left-hand side of the master page in side a navigation menu, there is a search box with a button that is set to be the default submit button via code when text has been entered into the search text box.
[Code]....
ABOVE the search box is a ASP:LoginStatus control that when the user clicks "Login" it takes you to a login.aspx page which contains a ASP:Login control inside the same master page. Without setting the LoginImageUrl and LogoutImageUrl properties of the ASP:LoginStatus, the login/logout appears as text. And the enter button works when a user enters text into the search box (submits info to search service and takes user to search results) OR if the user enters their user name and password into the Login control and hits enter (logs in and redirects user based upon role). Everything works fine. Once I set the loginImageUrl and LogoutImageUrl properties of the ASP:LoginStatus though, the enter key no longer submits anything. It will just postback the page.
I'm guessing that adding an image to those properties cause the loginstatus to take the default behavior of a button. How do I prevent it from breaking the behavior of the enter key on everything else?
i am using master page i have in my left menu there is a button to logout on the left menu when i click on it i was typing inside a textbox and but whenever i press Enter it logs me out i think because it s causing the click on buttonlogout how to avoid this problem in all my pages but i don t want to disable the press enter only i need to stop it on log outbutton from left menu it seems i have to set focus off on this button.
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 page where the calendar imagebutton and extendar are the first button on the page. I notice that when I hit enter on any of the fields (textboxes) that the calendar will open. How can I prevent this?
I tried setting a default button for the form, which works, but it then causes another problem in that it fires my validators when I hit enter on a field that triggers a button other than the default button. For example, I have a lookup field with a button and if I hit enter on this field the validators will flash quickly because the default button is the submit button and it's trying to submit the form.
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 ......
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 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 developing ASP.Net Website and has a Webform with lots of controls. I have so many different controls on my page like buttons, textboxes, etc.
Now what happens is that generally on any form, when user hits Enter Key, it fires the first default button's click event or if focus is on any button, it fires that button click. I want to avoid this.
When user hits enter key on form basically nothing should happen. But let's say if he is entering into multiline textbox, that enter key should work to go to next line in that textbox.
I tried this.
[Code]....
but the problem is that then it disabled enter key for everything. But what I am looking for is that to avoid any button click event or any other postback to happen when user hits enter key while being on form anywhere. But Enter key should work when it is inside textbox or inside any such control.
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.
