The group button in my form is set to "unack".
The Spring HwController receive the correct group "unack" when the "apply" button is clicked.
However, the HwController receive the null group when the cursor is moved to the text box and press the <Enter> key.
Only the data from the button is received incorrectly, the other form data are received correctly.
Please help so that the HwController will receive the correct group when the <Enter> key is pressed.
I use Spring 2.5.x to implement JSP.

Hw.jsp file:

    var group = 'all';

HwController.java:

public ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(HttpServletRequest request,
    HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
  String group = "all";
  String groupStr = request.getParameter("group");
  logger.info("groupStr " + groupStr);
  if (groupStr != null)
    group = groupStr;
  logger.info("group " + group);
}

Modify to this but still has the same problem:

<br>Rows Per Page<input type="text" name="rowsPerPage" id="rowsPerPage" value="${rowsPerPage}" onsubmit="setgroup()"/>

Modify to this but still has the same problem:

<br>Rows Per Page<input type="text" name="rowsPerPage" id="rowsPerPage" value="${rowsPerPage}" onsubmit="setgroup()"/>

The hwform is changed to the following.
Now pressing the <Enter> key and clicking the "Apply" button has the same result - the button value is changed from "ack" to "all".
However, I expect that the button value should not change.

<form name="hwform" onsubmit="setgroup()">
  <c:set var="unhwchk" value="" />  
  <c:if test="${ok}">
    <c:set var="unhwchk" value="checked" />
  </c:if>
  <br><br><input type="checkbox" name="ok" id="ok" ${unhwchk}/>HW
  <br>Rows Per Page<input type="text" name="rowsPerPage" id="rowsPerPage" value="${rowsPerPage}"/>
  <input type="submit" value="Apply"/><br>
</form>

I took out the submit button and the group button is still present.
The group button in my form is set to "unack".
After typing in a number at the text box, then I press the "Enter" key. The group button in my form is set to "all", which is unexpected. I expect the group button still set in the "unack" state.
