Applications Web Development

I have one syntax to find something from desktop on server, the script is as below, I actually speaking don't know anything in this script.

It creates a window, where i get a drop down boxes with folder names given below and a blank box where i have to put the folder name to search. and then I have to click on the "Click to Find" button in window by mouse. What I need is instead on using the mouse click i should get the results after pressing "enter" on keyboard, can anyone please help me on this.

<html>
<head>
<title>:: Desktop Search ::</title>
<style>
  .submit { cursor: hand;border:none; background-color:white; font-family:arial: font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold; }
</style>

<script language="javascript">
// Global variables

	var curdate = new Date();
	var year = curdate.getYear(); // eg 2008
	var yr = year.toString();


	function clearDefault(el) {
		if (el.defaultValue==el.value) el.value = "";
	}

	function putDefault(el) {
		if (el.value=="") el.value = el.defaultValue;
	}

   function setPath()
   {
	    document.frm1.path.value = "";
		
	    var folder = document.frm1.folder.value;
	    var slash = document.frm1.slash.value;
	    var path = document.frm1.DefaultPath.value+slash+folder+slash;
	    document.frm1.path.value = path;
    }

    function setActualPath()
    {
	    var slash = document.frm1.slash.value;
	    var ActualPath =  document.frm1.path.value+document.frm1.PID.value;
        document.forms[0].action= ActualPath;
        document.forms[0].reset();

        return true;
    }

    function Search()
    {
    if ( setActualPath()==false ) alert("Hello");
    }
</script>
</head>

Try adding this to your submit tag:

onkeydown="if ((event.which && event.which == 13) || (event.keyCode && event.keyCode == 13)) setActualPath()"
