[ciapug] Form submission

[Jerry Weida]

This generally occurs when the submit button is not of the type
submit.  You can either change that to a submit type or your can write
some javascript.
can't remember how to get the keycode into the fuction, but I'm sure
you can find that out somewhere online pretty easy, or maybe someone
here on the list would know.
some pseudo-code

<input type="button" onChange="javascript:submitform()" />

function submitform() {
  if btn=chr(13)   # see if we hit the enter key
    document.forms[0].submit()
}
