server event not firing

[Lee Swanson]

I have a form with a single field and a submit button with a server event.

If I click the submit button, the event runs and everything is fine, if I
hit enter in the form, the server event does not fire!

Another wierd thing is, when I add a second text input field, the event
fires when I press enter.

I could change the button to a "button" so that the form wont submit unless
the button is clicked, but I want to be able to submit with an enter press.

Has anyone else come accross this problem?

Lee.
