Pressing enter submits wrong button

I have two controls of type asp:ImageButton on masterPage. my login page contains a asp:Login control with two textboxes for username and password and a asp:Button for logging in.

If I press Enter after completing the two textboxed, it will trigger the ImageButton's method which refreshes the page.

You can use the property DefaultButton to define, at the form level or inside a Panel, the button that will be "clicked" by default when you press Enter:

<form id="form1" runat="server" defaultbutton="btn5">
    <asp:TextBox ID="txtBox0" runat="server" />
    <asp:Panel runat="server" DefaultButton="btn2">
        <asp:TextBox ID="txtBox1" runat="server" />
        <asp:Button ID="btn1" runat="server" Text="Button1" />
        <asp:Button ID="btn2" runat="server" Text="Button2" />
    </asp:Panel>
    <asp:TextBox ID="txtBox2" runat="server" />
    <asp:Button ID="btn3" runat="server" Text="Button3" />
    <asp:Button ID="btn4" runat="server" Text="Button4" />
    <asp:Button ID="btn5" runat="server" Text="Button5" />
</form>

In the example above:

  • btn2 will be "clicked" by pressing Enter in txtBox1
  • btn5 will be "clicked" by pressing Enter in txtBox0 or in txtBox2
