Login Control problems in Firefox

[mdavis]

Hello,
I'm using a Login Control on asp.net 2.0 website and it works fine on
IE & Firefox, however I have recently added a javscript function to
listen for a 'return-key-click' and am encountering problems with
Firefox.
If the user clicks the 'Login' button with a mouse button click, it
works fine, however if the user hits enter, the form fields are
cleared and the user is not logged in.
Please note, this only happens if the user has 'remember passwords'
checked in their Firefox preferences.

Thanks for your time,
Max

i don't see anything obvious, but you are canceling the current event
and firing a new one. i change:

objLogin.loginB utton.click();

to
window.setTimeo ut(function(){o bjLogin.loginBu tton.click();}) ;

also asp.net has a built set default button function you could use
instead (see panel).

Hi, I would like to force postback when retunr key is pressed but I don't
found the property to do this.
What you mean about "see panel" ??
thanks.
