    javascript:keysuppress(event)

    How can I make the following code run only when the cursor is in one
    text box and not in another?


    <body onkeypress="jav ascript:keysupp ress(event)"


    function keysuppress(e)
    {
    if (e.type=="keypr ess" && e.keyCode=="13" )
    {
    event.returnVal ue=false
    }
    }

    This would be for I.E. 5.5 and later.

      Set the handler on the textbox and not on the body element. And remove the
      "javascript :" bit. That would be the quickest, I think. Or identify your
      textboxes and test for an id in the function before deciding on a return
      value.

          Ivo,

          How exactly do I identify my textboxes and test for an id in the function ?

          Thanks,

          Marcia

              I got it:

              document.active Element.getAttr ibute("name")
