It's defined behaviour, by Netscape, and you can't turn it off. You can only validate the inputs you get and send them back if they are invalid. NOTE: Requiring the user to "click" on a SUBMIT button rather than hit Return is *most* annoying to many users. If they don't "click" on SUBMIT, you don't get that variable in your script.
