Strange ASP.NET Submit Button Behavior

Hi Experts,

I'm having a lot of trouble with this one.

A simple textbox control and a button control. If a visitor types a number into the textbox, and then clicks the 'submit' button with the mouse, the onclick event runs a subroutine that does a membership check. All is well.

However, if the person simply types their member number into the text box and presses ENTER, the page appears to post back but no data is processed.

Any idea what is going on? This is driving me NUTS!!

Here's the complete code. Any help would be appreciated.

<%@ Page Language="VB" EnableViewState="false" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Configuration" %>
<%@ Register Assembly="PeterBlum.VAM" Namespace="PeterBlum.VAM" TagPrefix="VAM" %>
