How to capture <ENTER> in a webdynpro java based adobe interactive form?

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

How to capture 'enter' in a webdynpro java based adobe interactive form?

Scenario: I have a table in adobe form. The first column is employee id. on entering employee id in the column 1 of the table, on pressing <ENTER> the employee id has to be validated against the backend SAP HR and the details have to be fetched and populated in the other columns.

Appreciate help.

Thanks,

Shobhit

hi,

when you open form editor... (interactive form->edit)

you see tabs (BodyPages | Master Pages | XML Source | PDF Preview)

immediately above that there is a sort of a strip that can Expand(the blue thing)

there u select Language = JavaScript

Select RunAt = Client or Client and Server

the text box there is used for writing JavaScript.

there is a Show option.

if Enter key capturing is allowed in JavaScript you should be able to do it here...

hope it helps...

(i am yet to use JavaScript in interactive forms, this is all i know so far)

Thanks for the lead Amol. I'll do some research myself.
