asp.net problem

[Aaron]

I'm new to asp.net I don't know if this is the way it is designed but when i
have a textbox and a button, typing in some text and hitting the enter key
will not submit the data, i would have to click the button in order to
submit. In normal html page i can just hit the enter key it will submit the
form. is there a way around this.

thanks

The ASP.NET architecture is very different from 'normal' HTML.
We're now working with a full-fledged programming language based
on Object Oriented design principles.

All of the official documentation is at msdn.microsoft.com but I
suggest you pick up a 'beginners' book or two or a dozen or so...

You can intercept the client side enter keypress event of the text box and
then click do what you want using javascript code.
Here's a good example:

You could also try using this free control.

And here's a good article on the subject:
