on a simple form hitting the enter key does not execute the method binding found in either the "action" or "actionListener" attribute of the ice:inputSecret component. The relevant same attributes in inputText does work though when hitting return.

To see an example of this, I've attached a WAR that contains example JSPX login form along with a backing bean.

See previous comment that this file/files is/are for.

As a work-a-round this was able to be accomplished by removing the actionListener in the ice:inputSecret component and adding in a binding attribute that then allowed me to execute a addActionListener in the set method for that HtmlInputSecret binding. Now when I hit enter in the inputSecret text box, the actionListener IS fired and using a PersistentFacesState.getInstance().navigateTo(authenticate()) in the called action listener I can then also forward to another page just like the action attribute would normally do.

For a complete scenario of what took place, please see the topic especially at http://www.icefaces.org/JForum/posts/list/6359.page#27735.

When fixing this, be sure to test against JSF 1.1 and JSF 1.2.

No update..?

Is there any news on this?

Any update?

Truly needed!

It was fixed as of 1.7.1. Please see the attached demo named as ICE-2399.war.
The demo has been tested with the following version of ICEFaces. Please see the result below:

1.7.0DR#2 : not working
1.7.0DR#3: not working
1.7.1: working
1.7.2: working
1.8.0 DR#1: working
trunk head : working

We have tested the head with the JSF 1.1 and JSF 1.2 both are working fine.

The following note I have added to the demo. I would like to add it here as well:
Note: if the submit happens by the tab key using paritalSubmit true, it doesn't considered as an action event. The action event will be considered only when the enter key was hit on the input field.

file attachment isn't working

After attaching the file, resolving the issue.
