Input type / Form Question

[nagasea]

This is my code ( from form to fetch data from my database table).

	<form method=\"post\"  action=\"$php_self\">
	<input type=\"text\" name=\"cari\">
	<input type=\"submit\" name=\"fetchingdata\" value=\"Go!\">
	</form>

My question is, how come if I fill the text field and press enter I dont get the result.
but if I fill the text field and then hit/click the Go! button, I got the result.

Is there anyway to hit enter and treat the same like I click the go! button ?

Hi,

some older Brosers like Netscape 4.7x do not submit the form if you press enter. The form might also not be submitted if the focus is on another element in an form.

You might try to catch keyboard actions with javascript and to submit the form if the enter key is pressed.
