-----------------------------------------

Ofcourse it should only be done when internet explorer is detected.

>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-771
>      Project: MyFaces
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: Implementation
>     Versions: 1.1.0
>  Environment: linux 2.6.9-11 running java 1.5.0_05-b05
> internet explorer 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519
>     Reporter: Joris Verschoor

>
> We have  a form with:
> * a submit button (commandButton, type="submit") with an action (action="#{bean.go}") 
> * a single textinput field (single textbox is key)
> * several selectboxes
> If you press enter, when the textbox has focus, it's expected to submit the first submitbutton.
> This works fine under firefox. However, under IE, when you press enter, yuo get a different results than clicking the submit button.
> This results in unexpected behaviour: Because the name/value pair is not submitted by pressing enter, myfaces does not know that the button was clicked, and therefore does not invoke the action (bean.go())
> The problem is also described: http://ppewww.ph.gla.ac.uk/~flavell/www/formquestion.html
> The input pixel image solution did not work for us, but we've found another way:
> At the beginning of the form, we've put:
> <f:verbatim>
> <input type="text" name="input_for_enterkey_submit" style="display: none;">
> </f:verbatim>
> The myfaces renderer should count the number of textinputs, and if there is only one textinput, it should create a hidden textinput.
