Hello,

In the following form (essentially taken from web2py examples),
the "Enter" key does not work as expected, I am obliged
to click on the submit button.

=== test1/views/default/searchform.html ===
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
<p>Type something and press the button.</p>
<form>
<INPUT type="text" id='q' value=""/>
<INPUT type="button" value="submit"
onclick="ajax('{{=URL(r=request,f='search')}}',['q'],'target');"/>
</form>
<br/>
<div id="target"></div>

=== test1/controllers/default.py ===
#[...]
def searchform():
    return dict()
#
def search():
    chars = ""
    if request.vars.q:
        chars = request.vars.q     # (to do: sanitize chars)
    rows = 
db(db.contact.site_code.like('%'+chars+'%')|db.contact.customer_rsa.like('%'+chars+'%')).select()
    return SQLTABLE(rows, truncate=48)

==========================

In my http://127.0.0.1:8000/test1/default/searchform page,
once the input field is filled with something, then:
- if I press enter, my browser (Firefox 3) apparently does
  a GET of the same current URL ("searchform"), without passing parameters.
  This is not what i expect.
- if I click on the submit button, i obtain the expected behavior,
  i.e. the browser does a "POST /test1/default/search" passing
 appropriately the "q=xxx" param.

How to obtain the same behavior whether the user hits Enter or he
clicks Submit?

Thanks
