I'm having some trouble getting the AllowSubmitOnEnter property to work. I have a page with two grids...selecting a row in Grid A populates Grid B. In both grids, my users want to be able to use the enter key to submit inserts/edits on the grid.
I have set the following navigation settings on both grids:
<ClientSettings AllowKeyboardNavigation="true" >
<KeyboardNavigationSettings AllowSubmitOnEnter="true" />
</ClientSettings>
On Grid A, this works perfectly and the users can press enter. However, on Grid B, those settings seem to be getting ignored. When the users press enter to submit an insert/edit, those events are not fired. Instead, the submit button's event is fired.
Can anyone give me a clue as to what to look for? The grids are pretty identical in properties, the biggest difference being that Grid A populates Grid B. I'm confused as to why the exact same properties seem to work on one but are ignored on the other.
Thank you!

After several hours of playing with this, stripping out updatepanels, etc, I've come to the conclusion that the AllowSubmitOnEnter just doesn't work for more than one grid on a page. My guess is that having more than one somehow causes a conflict. I even removed my submit button, but in that case, the second grid, upon Enter, would just fire the command on the first grid to put it into Insert mode. The second grid never fired the appropriate Update/Insert command.
For now, I've gotten around this by just catching and disabling the Enter key, so my users have to use their mouse. It's not ideal, but it prevents accidental submission of the form.
I would like some confirmation from Telerik, if possible, that I'm on the right track. Is it true that the AllowSubmitOnEnter won't work for more than one grid on a page? Or am I completely missing something here?
Thank you!

You can try placing a hidden button on the page:
