html regular button is triggered with an enter key

[Matt]

I want html regular button is triggered with an enter key. That means, when the user
press ENTER key, it will trigger the event in html regular button. I tried
the following code, and I realized submit button is triggered with an
enter key. But not html regular button. Any workarounds? Please advise. Thanks!!

<INPUT TYPE="button" value="regular button" onClick="alert('button');">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" value="submit button" onClick="alert('submit');">

A button never [well, without a lot of scripting] reacts to an enter key.
A selected <input type=text> enter key submits a form, but does not trigger
a button.

Show your exact code, please, including the <form> and the other <input>s.
