Wanting enter key not to default to submit data

[jofarrell]

I have a time sheet form that allows user to enter past dates and retrieve their old timesheets. The problem occurs is that after the users enter in the two dates and hit return it submits an empty form clearing out all the old data. I do have to allow them to be able to enter blank fields so I cant validate for that. There is a dynamic table that I create with all current projects and that also prevents me from being able to validate a specific field. Any suggestions on how i can change the TAB oder to allow the "Get Previous" to occur on enter as opposed to "Submit"??

Thanks for any help,

Joanne

You can change the submit button from type=submit to type=button. Then you can use an onclick after, that submits the form (using formname.submit). Hope this helps
