RadAutoCompleteBox needs to trigger ASP button.

[John]

I have the RadAutoCompleteBox on my page and next to it is a an ASP button.

<asp:Button ID="LoadReportButton" runat="server" Text="Load Report" OnClick="LoadReportButton_Click" />

Is there any way when a user selects a value on the drop down and creates a token all they have to do is press enter on the keyboard instead of pressing tab then enter.

I have it so far when you select an item it fires the function, entry added and displays a pop up saying what you have selected.

<script type="text/javascript">
    function entryAdded(sender, eventArgs)
    {
        alert("An item with Text='" + eventArgs.get_entry().get_text() + "' has just been selected.");
    }

I just need a piece of code that highlights the button or even fires the button automatically which would be cool.

Cheers

Hi John,

I am afraid that the scenario that you want to implement is not supported.

You can optionally try to focus the button in this way:

function OnClientEntryAdded(sender, eventArgs) {
        var button = document.getElementById("<%=btnSubmit.ClientID %>").focus();
}

<telerik:RadAutoCompleteBox runat="server" OnClientEntryAdded="OnClientEntryAdded"
    ID="RadAutoComplete1" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
    DataTextField="CategoryName" DataValueField="CategoryID">
</telerik:RadAutoCompleteBox>
<asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" Text="Submit" />

All the best,
