Details

In a form with only one text field, the form should be submitted when the user presses the enter key inside the text field. Sample HTML: <form action="foo.cgi" method="post"> <input type=text size=25 value="Submit me"> </form> Currently, I hear a "ding" when hitting enter but nothing happens. I assume this is a forms issue but will need something from the events world too.

This makes it impossible to use html forms and JavaScript to create a local program (which isn't supposed to submit).
