annoying and obnoxious to you, but expected behavior in any windows app (ie,
pressing enter is the same as pressing the default button which is usually
indicated to the user by a dotted line near its outside edges.

bad boy -- go to your room without supper.
;p
seriously though, why cripple behavior users are accustomed to simply
because you find it annoying?
what about this behavior is problematic, in your opinion?
btw, i'm working on a part 2 to my forms & javascript article that's
currently available on the website. you can bet this "fine" example will
make it in to that article.
