You are correct. I want if someone hits enter in a particular input box, I want an action associated with that input but to be executed.

Instead of doing save we would use the for searching a table grid or initializing other textbox. But this is what we are looking for.

Please shared the oml. 

Thanks

Looking at this, it is almost where I want to be. If someone hit enter in the Name box it would trigger the action associated with Name. If someone hit enter in the Surname it would trigger the action with Surname.

Currently with our non Outsystems pages, hitting enter will trigger an action. It will be hard to get people to change that behavior. So is it easy to modified the oml to perform this kind of task?

Thanks

Not quite. I didn't see how hitting enter in a text box will trigger the button action associated with text box. Looking at what you provided instead of the button being save they would be doing a search in a table or another type of action. I want the people to enter text, hit enter and preform like a search or another action without having to hit another button to do the action. 

Here is a better example. I have created a change dynamic paging size and dynamic go to  paging for a table aggregate when there are a lot of pages. There are several tables and buttons on a page. 

If they what to change the paging size, they would enter the new paging size then hit enter to change the paging size. Same applies to go to page. What been happing is if the hit enter the action associated with the first button on the page get executed. The same applies search textbox associated with a table aggregate. The first button's action will be executed. 

So how easy is it to have a text box doing a specific action when hitting enter in the text box? Some examples on the Forum indicated using JavaScript. But there seem to be different versions on how to do this. None of them have worked for what I want. Actually they still cause the first button's action even with the JavaScript.

Sorry if I originally cause some confusion . Oh by the way, some of these pages were created using Lisbon other are using outsystems 11. We did not want to change all the Lisbon pages to outsystems 11. So new ones are using outsystems 11. 

Thanks

It is  traditional. Again thanks for your help. This is the last issue I have before publishing to Production.

I think I understand what you are doing but I have one more question. The JavaScript function will be called everything a key press happens on the page. Then it will look at which if input was cause the keypress then process if enter was one of the keys? I assume if you had multiple input fields that just add a 

$('.input').keypress(function (e) ... for each input. like you had input name member and courts there would be an $('.member').keypress(function(e) and an $('.court').keyperss(function(e)…

Other than this question, I am ready to give this a try

Since you will be see this when you come to work and I will still be sleeping, Here is what I found. 

It works the very first time I enter the page or reset the page. Then after that it stops working and will go to the first button on the page. I have 3 text boxes and several buttons. It works for each text box the first time you enter data then hit the enter key. After that, it will stop working regardless which textbox you enter data.

Almost there except of this minor detail.
