Solution 1

You can do like that

function button1()
{
    document.getElementById('<%= Button1.ClientID%>').focus()
}
function button2()
{
    document.getElementById('<%= Button2.ClientID%>').focus()
}

and call these functions on "onblur" event of the textbox like

<asp:textbox id="TextBox1" runat="server" onblur="button1()" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />

Solution 2

Write a JavaScript function and handle the keyup event of the textbox. Check if the KeyCode is 13 (i.e) enter button is pressed, call the corresponding button click event.

Give it a try!

If you want to press enter in a textbox - see below - vb.net

Let's say that button2 has the code you want to call - by pressing enter in a textbox

This is an easy way to do it

notice - Textbox1_keydown

VB

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyDown
   If (e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter) Then Button2.PerformClick()
End Sub
