Is it possible for a user to submit a cf flash form with one text field using there enter key.

I have looked at the following js but does not seem to recognise the form object:

<cfformitem type="script">
function submit1() {
RightMenu.SearchTerm.focus();
return true;
}
</cfformitem>

This function is called from the forms onSubmit event.

Thanks drforbin1970,

I slightly modified your code and it works just fine.

I used this on a login page and placed it in the 'Password" input - onKeyDown="if(Key.isDown(Key.ENTER)) {submitForm()}"

Quickest I could come up with.
Make submit button not visible, check each keypress for enter code. When enter pressed, force click of invisible submit button.

<cfsavecontent variable="click">
if(Key.getCode()==13){
submit.dispatchEvent({type:"click"});
}
</cfsavecontent>

<cfform format="flash" name="myform" method="get" action="go_somewhere.cfm">
<cfinput type="text" name="x" onKeyDown="#click#" size="20">
<cfinput type="submit" name="submit" visible="no" width="1" height="1">
</cfform>
