For those who are using the .Net 2.0 login control, I just thought about a hacky way to implement the scenario where users can hit the Enter key to fire the login button event, here is how it works:

1- wrap your login control into a Panel and call it Panel1.

2- inset a button on stage and call it dummyButton, set it's width and height  to 0, set it border to none and it is background anad foreground to white set it is text to empty string.( this is way, dummybutton will be invisible). If you are wondering why wouldn't I just set the visibility to false, well the answer is that it won't work.

3- set the defaultbutton of Panel1 to dummyButton and set put this code the dummyButton your click handler

bool crediteUser = Membership.ValidateUser(Login1.UserName, Login1.Password);

if (crediteUser)

{

FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(Login1.UserName,false);

}

 

Hope this helps

 I think I have a even better solution for the Default Enter Key in Login Control. You don't need to write any code. Just follow the following steps:

1.  Convert the Login control into a template by selecting the control and clicking the the arrow button on the top right corner and select "Convert to Template".
2.  In your Login control template design view, add a Panel into the template and put everything in the Login control into the Panel.
3.  When you convert your Login control to a template, the submit button in the Login control is now separated out. Select on the submit button to find out its name and fill the name into the DefaultButton property of the Panel inside the Login control template.

 Problem solved.

This does the job with indead minimal coding.

To set the focus to the username textbox I added the following code to the Page_Load:

TextBox userName = (TextBox)Login1.FindControl("UserName");
userName.Focus();

This works for me. 

hi everyone , I am also having the same problem and tried all the solutions but they r working only for single text box.if i set defaultbutton property of a form then it works for first text box only. also i have tried other solutions ,plz suggest some solution.

I don't understand what you're trying to say.  An example would help as a starting point.

I invite you to visit this page: http://pocketpollster.com/beta/Feedback/infoRequest.aspx   It works properly for my needs.  How close is yours to it?

Hi Parcol,

Can you show me some code on your panel workaround?

I tried your suggestions and it gave me some errors.

Thanks

how this can be solved in .net 1.1

suppose there are two frame one for new login and another for existing login ........ with 2 textboxes and one button in each frame...

when user mouse is in the perticular textbox the corresponding button should fire ,,, as that we have in .net 2.0 through defaultbutton in div

how can be done in .net 1.1

Set default button as new login for frame1 and existing login for frame 2  

Hi Friend,

Just use access key property to do that

No Need Of this  much of stuff.Just u can do in the following way

 //the button which you want as default button define it in defaultbutton

<form id="form1" runat="server" defaultbutton= "btn_Submit">

Page.Form.DefaultButton = Me.FindControl("Button1").UniqueID

it works successfully .

Write it on Page_Load Event

The ideas presented already are good ones.  Here's another, more extensive example that definitely works:

            <asp:Panel ID="newsletterPanel" CssClass="newsletter" runat="server">
              <table style="background-color:#B9C8FF; border-style:none; width:100%">
