Please help me Hi, My JSP contains the following things A text box and a GO button which fetches the result based on the criteria entered in textbox. The GO button has a validation for a blank search criteria and displayes alert message if we press GO without entering anything. But the problem is, if I hit on ENTER, it fetches me the result even if I haven't entered anything in the text box. It does not go through the validation which executes on pressing on GO button. Please help........... -ShriKant =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
