Avoid Beep sound when enter keypress in a textbox

When you create an aspx page as this one:

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true"  CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title>Untitled Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>

        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
        <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>

    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

how can you avoid the beep sound that happens when you are in a textbox and hit enter.

On the other hand I would like to handle the enter onkeypress event.

Tx!

  • If it's related to the browser that your audience is using, then they're used to it happening, because it happens on every other site besides yours. I'd say it's not worth worrying about - kind of like people with JavaScript turned off. They know they've got it turned off, and they're accustomed to sites lacking certain functionality as a result. You can't force them to turn it on, and you can't force them to turn the sound thing off. It's one of those experience comprises you've got to accept in web apps.
