Pressing enter is going back instead of submitting
« on: August 06, 2017, 10:00:10 PM »
NTWS 10
Memory form,  I have a search field(s) and a submit button marked as default button to refresh a browse
However pressing enter causes one to go back a page instead.

How do I get enter to press my button instead?

No.  No std buttons at all. No update forms Everything is just display only in the browse.

>>  and a submit button

should be just a button though, not a "submit" button...

OK To clarify.
I have memory forms with fields (dates for browse filters), buttons, one of which I call submit, but is just a button with an equate of Button:refresh that in client actions does a reset of other fields mainly a procedure calling a Browse.

In all forms the refresh is checked as default button.
In all cases the enterkey goes back to the previous page.
so enter - enter -enter - enter swaps between 2 pages

to further clarify - this behaviour seems to be application wide.

Hi

Not sure I am reading your post correctly but you do not need to call the browse from the form.

The browse should be a procedure on the memory form. So the form has the date fields and the browse procedure.

Set the button to refresh the browse.
No need to call the browse as the browse is part of the form.

Cheers

Vinnie

@vinnie
The memory form has dates for filtering the browse.
The Button is set to refresh the browse. And it works fine if you click the Button.
If you press enter it goes to the previous page.

Can you set up a small example, maybe with one of the shipping examples, that shows the effect Sean? (I recommend example Books (71) as a starting point...)
