Enter key causes submit action in form

[gerryj]

I've created a form using Dreamweaver 4.0 and I see that pressing the Enter key
in any blank field in the form causes a "Submit" action. When there is no
Submit button anywhere in the form the enter key does nothing. This form feeds
to a cgi script on the server which sends an email to me with the user input
from the fields in the form.
Does anyone know how to disable the Enter key or relegate it's function to
moving between fields?

Thanks

Pressing [enter] in any input field - blank or not - will usually cause
the browser to submit the form.

Impossible. What's the problem actually? Incomplete submissions?

Not impossible. Try it yourself at

And, Yes the problem is incomplete form submission. In any form that I create
if there is a "Submit" button as defined by Dreamweaver; (ie. select form
button from the "Objects Panel", and select type of submit button) anywhere in
the form the "Enter Key" causes a submit action.

And pressing the Enter Key is done all to often.

I've scoured documentation and can't find any way to overcome the problem.
I'll appreciate any ideas.
