Here's a complete example of both things... I even tested it, and it does work (although come to think of it, I'm not 100% sure it'll work in anything besides IE, I'll leave that to you to find out... I think it should though)...
<html><head><title></title></head><body>
<form name="theForm" method="post" action="whatever.app">
<input type="text" name="field1" onKeyPress="if(window.event.keyCode==13){theForm.submit();}">
<br>
<select name="field2" onKeyPress="if(window.event.keyCode==13){theForm.submit();}">
<option value="opt1">opt1</option>
</select>
<br>
<input type="button" name="ignoreKeypress" value="No Enter Here!" onKeyPress="if(window.event.keyCode==13){return false};">
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body></html>
Hope that helps!

Thank you very much, Frank, we'll use your idea.
we also need to do what you've done : your "reverse behaviour:submit the form when any of the fields has focus rather than just the submit button" .
Because I'm not that experienced with java script, could please forward an example from your code (before I try it for one day to make it work...).
(event handler attached to the button or to the field ...)
Do you have any JSTL that would do that ? ( we try to minimize java script as much as possible).
We appreciate your help greatly! Marina

I've never tried this, but I've done the reverse, so it probably should work... you should be able to just eat the enter key event via client-side scripting. This SHOULD work:
if (window.event.keyCode == 13) { return false; }
Attach that as a page-level event handler and I think it'll do the trick.
You may have to attach it to each of the submit buttons (in fact, that might
be required INSTEAD of making it page-level, I think that might be the
case).
As I said, I've done the exact reverse, handling enter as a submit event (so
that you could submit the form when any of the fields has focus rather than
just the submit button), so I'd bet this works.
