Hi David. I had to deal with this pretty early on in my Tapestry learning, and have stuck with pretty much the same strategy since then. There are two ways that I handle it. First here's the simple one:
What you need is the very useful "ButtonSubmit" component written by Glen Stampoultzis (also the author of Krysalis Menu). It's at Tassel: http://equalitylearning.org/Tassel/app?service=direct/1/Browse/viewComponent&sp=SgstampButtonSubmit+Component It was written specifically to solve your problem, and works well. Things start to get a bit more complicated when you have a border component with image submits etc, (because then we would need a library of components like Glen's for images, links ...) and that's when I use technique #2. Place a transparent 1x1 pixel image submit (with style="display:none;") in your border template, such that it is always the first submit. Give it a unique tag and you will always be able to differentiate between a submit via <enter>, and other javascript submits like PropertySelection. My form listener code then looks something like this: public static final String otherFormAction = "o"; ... public void submitForm(IRequestCycle cycle) { // get the submit action String submitTarget = getSubmitTarget(); if (submitTarget == null) { // javascript based form submit (eg PropertySelection) } else if (submitTarget.equals(enterKeyFormAction)) { // <enter> pressed in a browser text field } else if (submitTarget.equals(otherFormAction)) { ... As you can see, I like to use constant strings as the submit tags. <property-specification name="submitTarget" type="java.lang.String"/> ... <component id="otherSubmit" type="Submit"> <binding name="selected" expression="submitTarget"/> <binding name="tag" expression="@[EMAIL PROTECTED]"/> </component> Hope that helps.
