I've observed a difference between how IE and NS interact with even simple
forms. With IE, hitting the RETURN or ENTER key usually but not always
triggers the submit button, but almost never with NS. Is this behavior
controllable by my scripts?
For example:
<head><title>test form</title></head>
<body>
<?php
if( $ok )
{
echo "name1 is $name1\n";
echo "name2 is $name2\n";
}
else
{
echo "<form action='$PHP_SELF' method=POST>\n";
echo "Name1:<input type='TEXT' name='name1'>\n";
#echo "Name2:<input type='TEXT' name='name2'>\n";
echo "<input type='SUBMIT' name='ok' value='ok'>\n";
echo "</form>\n";
}
?>
</body>
If I run this form using IE, hitting the Return/Enter key submits the form
but the 'ok' variable is not set; it just redraws the form. If however, I
uncomment the third echo line (the one for Name2), then hitting the
Return/Enter key does have the desired effect in IE. In NS, the first
version acts just like IE; the form redraws and that is all. But using the
second variant with both text fields, hitting the Return key in NS does
nothing at all.
Is this just the way it is? :-(
Or is this behavior controllable somehow? :-)
