Hi,
 

In your page load, bind your login button id as default.
 
here is the below syntax,
 
   Page.Form.DefaultButton = btnLogin.UniqueID;
 
Here, in the place of btnLogin, give your login button id.
 
Hope this helps.

that didn't work but i got solution from other suggestion. anyway thanks
Without seeing your code it's a bit difficult. All I can suggest is that you use the following property to make the browser submit the form in the way you want:
 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.button.usesubmitbehavior.aspx[^]
 
Your login button should have UseSubmitBehavior="true" and the signup button should have UseSubmitBehavior="false"
 
This should tell the browser to submit the form using the login button when you press enter.
