Chrome JavaScript click()

The following .NET VB code (that generates JavaScript in the browser) works great for capturing the Enter key and firing the login button in FF, and IE but not in Chrome:

password.Attributes.Add("onkeydown", "if(event.which || event.keyCode || event.charCode){if ((event.which == 13) || (event.keyCode == 13) || (event.charCode == 13)) {document.getElementById('" & loginButton.ClientID & "').click();return false;}} else {return true}; ")

It gets the event.keyCode ok but that's it. So I'm guessing it's an issue with the button.click() part.

Does anyone have a clue if it's possible to work around this?

Can you give us the HTML code that is generated from this? – scottheckel Oct 06 '11 at 14:22

I've got a similar issue in that calling click() on an object in Chrome doesn't seem to be working. Did you ever find a solution? – Ben L Jan 18 '12 at 11:27
No I didn't sorry. Client is having to "live with it", even thought Chrome is now several versions up from when I raised the issue. Not ideal! – Craig Jan 18 '12 at 15:00
