Problem with JComboBox consuming 'ENTER' key action....
I have a 'JFrame'. with some Buttons and JComboBoxes. I have set one of the button as the 'DefaultButton'(To perform critical action whenever the user presses 'ENTER' key , no matter where the focus is ...) for this frame.
The problem is that whenever, the focus is on one of the JComboBoxes, the 'DefaultButton' is not getting the 'ENTER' action.
This is working fine with Sun JVM1.1.8. But not with Sun JVM1.3.0_02.
Any ideas how to fix it ???
Thanks...

can you post a small compilable example that we can work with ?
vijaynatraj,
I am guessing you are using KeyListener to handle this "ENTER" action, right? You can also addKeyListener to the JComboBoxes as well and do the same thing as the default button does.
