Re: [Design with CSS 3688] focus problem with edit box and submit button

You can't focus in on a submit button using js. This is actually the wrong list since it is a CSS list. But to answer your question, by default the browser associates the return key press as clicking on the FIRST or LAST submit button on a page of the form that is focused!

So if you have multiple submit buttons on a page (bad UI IMO) then you need to insure that each submit button is in its own form and then when page loads just have the form you want the submit button to work on return keypress be in focus ay page load.

Makes sense?
