That is true when the cursor is not in the text field at the time the
Enter key is hit, but if the cursor is still in the text field, the value
of the field is not passed on...at least that's what's happening in this
case.

  Without seeing your code I cant say 100%, but when a form is submitted
(either through clicking submit or hitting the enter key), the textbox form
field should always be present.

  Hi, Aaron...

  So you're saying that the textbox field value is not being passed
  and the "Search" button value is?  That makes sense, because
  if the "Search" button value was not being passed, the form and none
  of its fields would be processed.

  That still leaves a problem...if a user fills in the textbox field, and
  doesn't click out of the field before hitting the Enter key, then the
  textbox value isn't passed...at least that's what happened when I tested.

  It seems they'll just have to be instructed to use the Search button for
  submitting
  the form and not the Enter key...

    You dont have to - just check for the existence of the textbox field.

    Hi, Matthew, and thanks for the reply...

    You're right...the action is dependent upon the "Search" button value
  being
    passed.
    I guess the solution is to pass another value that will be passed if the
    Search button
    is clicked or the Enter key is hit.  I guess a hidden field would do the
    trick...

    Thanks, again...

      When the button is clicked, the associated button value is passed to
the
      form handler. When enter is hit, the button value is not passed.
    Apparently,
      your handler page is relying on that button value.

      Why would a form which has a Text Input field for keywords not
      put the keywords into play on the action if the Enter key is used
      to submit the form instead of the "Submit" (in this case "Search")
      button is clicked?
