Enter Key triggers onClick event

[Dreea]

Hello

I have designed a control that consists of a textarea and a button. When the user writes text in the textarea and the Enter key is pressed then the onClick event of the button is triggered. Is there any way I can make the Enter key not trigger the onClick event of the button. Or in the buttonclicked event handler to determine if the button was clicked or the enter was pressed?

Any help would be very appreciated
Thanks in advance

what exactly are you trying to do here... you may want to go with onfocus().... you can also check if the charcode pressed was 14

I don't want the enter key to trigger _btn_Click

       void _btn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            .....
        }   
 

where exactly i get the charcode pressed? I need to mention that the textbox is actually a gaia control so I don't have access to its code to add a keyPressed event handler

I would recommend asking the people who created the control how to prevent this from happening. If it was a regular text area you would not be experiencing this problem.
