Hi All

I have a great question...

I have and asp.net page which consists of 2 separate functions

(1)search function - consists of textbox and a button
(2)contact form - consists of a couple of textboxes and a button

Is there a way I can make it so that if the user is filling in the search textbox and then press the Return key it submits the search button and vice versa, if they are completing the contact form and press Return, it submits the contact form button?

In the old days separate form tags used to acheive this but as both functions are within the same set of form tags this isn't available.

Many thanks in advance

Rit

Hey,

In addition to what Brian posted, you may also want to take a look at the DefaultButton property of an ASP.NET page or Panel.

Basically, you could wrap your two "forms" into two ASP:Panels instead, and set the DefaultButton property of each panel to the appropriate button.

Take a look here for some inspiration:
