Yeah, kind of a pain in the butt. Here is the work around I use. It traps all key
presses, looking for the enter key and then submits the form. Keep in mind that this
works in
Netscape only since Netscape uses event.which and IE uses event.keyCode.
<script language="javascript">
function CheckForEnter(event) {
if (event.which == 13) { document.form.submit(); }
}
document.onkeydown=CheckForEnter;
</script>
