WHY DO THE BUTTONS SUCK?
I am so sick of the X-cart buttons that you cannot tab to. You cannot hit <ENTER> at the end of a text field and have it submit.
It is UN-intuitive, STUPID and totally retarded. Has anyone figured out how to make their buttons NOT crap in X-Cart? |

Good point. You won't believe how many times I wish Enter would submit!

I wonder if the enter key is just basically aliased to the submit button and it doesn't work because there is no submit button. I wonder if it's something as stupidly simple as putting a submit button in a hidden div ...

Not only that, is that some browsers don't actually work on X-Cart because the submit button has Javascript on it to check for invalid inputs. Why not make the check in PHP after submission instead? I know users should upgrade their browsers but you can't tell every single client to upgrade because your site can't support them.

What I mean is basically this: Can you put the following code in a form and then have the ability to hit enter to submit the form? Code:
I'm too lazy to test it myself. But from what I've seen, when you hit <enter> the browser just finds the first submit button on the page and clicks it for you.

Well in that case I'll jump in there with you. The buttons are the worst part about the x-cart UI, they're implemented REALLY stupidly in my opinion because if you want to make them all BUTTONS instead of little table text boxes with CSS problems in IE (ever get those flickering buttons? How cheap does that look!) you have to change EVERY BLOODY file that has a button in it because they're all surrounded by anchor tags. I've just given up, honestly.
