How to get input values till pressing enter key

hi!!!
i need to enter values thru keyboard using bufer reader etc etc
but i need to stop entering when i press enter key
how to do this??

First off I would take a look at this link because it gives quite a few good examples if you've never used scanner.
You can find all this on the link.-> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Scanner.html
in order to use scanner you have to import it.
import java.util.Scanner;then inside your main method you need to create a scanner wrapped around the keyboard inputstream.
Scanner userIn = new Scanner(System.in);take a look at the api to decide which method you want. For this I would suggest nextLine().
also I would specify that you want the numbers separated by spaces or comma's or something so you can use the String.split(" "); method which returns an array of Strings;
then traverse through the array of strings and convert them to ints

Pressing Enter key twice should submit the form

I am trying to enter the chinese characters in the text box, chinese chracters will become a whole word only when we press the Enter key. But after entering a chinese character , if I press the enter key then the form got submitted. Instead the form should get submitted only when we press Enter key for the second time.
Is it possible with Javascript?

Is it possible with Javascript?This is a Java forum. JavaScript and Java are two completely different things. You better find a JavaScript forum to ask this question.

How to set default button when press "Enter"

Hi,
I have a form and it has only one button (Submit). When I press "Enter", it can submit the form and do the action. However, when I add another button (Normal button, not submit), it cannot perform submit action directly when I press "Enter".
If we press "Enter" and the form can submit automatically, it is more user-friendly than without this feature. Therefore, may I know the method of set the default button when users press "Enter"?

At first I thought the order of the form controls might matter. When I run this code:
<cfdump var="#GetTickCount()#">
<form action="TestCfgrid.cfm" method="post">
<input name="x" type="text" />
<input type="button" value="x" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>
While I am in the text box, if I press the enter key the form submits. I originally tried it with the submit and button inputs in the opposite order.
Note that the enter button will not submit the form if you are in a select control (aka dropdown) or a textarea or if your focus is not on a form element. That's the default behaviour. If you want to override that, you'll have to write some javascript.

How to submit a form with checkboxes in a page flow?

I'm having some trouble with a form that contains several checkboxes, and
how to submit this form within a page flow...
I have a JSP page containing a form with N checkboxes. The value and
checked/unchecked status of each checkbox is generated from parsing an XML
document. Here is the (simplified) code:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/xml" prefix="x" %>
<netui:form action="doUpdate">
<x:forEach select="...">
<input type="checkbox" name="id"
<x:if ...>checked</x:if> value="<x:out ... />">
</x:forEach>
<netui:anchor formSubmit="true" action="doUpdate">Submit</netui:anchor>
<netui:anchor action="doCancel">Cancel</netui:anchor>
</netui:form>
When this form is submitted, the checkbox values are lost -- the following
code (in the action) produces an empty array:
String[] prefs = this.getRequest().getParameterValues("id");
I looked at the <netui:checkbox> tag, but it does not appear to give me a
way to set the state and value (unless I've missed something).
Can I submit a form without using a form bean? If I do use a form bean, can
I set the state and value from my JSP?
Any suggestions on how to do this (or insights into what I'm doing wrong)
are welcome...

I am new to this, but I think this may solve your problem:
I am not sure if this is what you are looking for, but you can create a LinkedHashMap
with the req key/value pairs in the page-calling action in the pageflow and then
pass that via a getRequest().setAttribute("myCheckboxes",myCheckboxHashMap);
You can then access it in code using the optionsDataSource portion of the netui:checkBoxGroup
- ie
<netui:checkBoxGroup dataSource="{actionForm.thisCheckbox}" optionsDataSource="{request.myCheckboxes}">
Hope this helps!

How can i select the next column instead of next row when press enter key

I need to know how can i select the next column instead of next row when i press the enter key.By default ,when i press enter key the next row is selected and the column remain unchanged but I wants opposite that is the row should remain unchanged but column index will changed.
Thanks to all.

Well, the right arrow key will already move you to the next column, so the easiest way to do this is to modify the InputMap to have the Enter key invoke the same Action as the right arrow key.
You can search the forum for my "Table Actions" (without the space) example that will show you how to do this.

Trigger PAI after pressing enter key

Hi all,
How to trigger the PAI event after pressing the enter key on the keyboard. i have a input field and a button on the screen. after entering the value into the field and pressing buttot will take to next screen. But if I press enter key the value is getting cleared. How to trigger the PAI event after pressing the enter key?
Thanks in advance,
Dev.

Hi,
The keyboard event 'Enter' does not have a default sy-ucomm or a Function code associated with it.
So, whenever you press Enter, it triggers the PAI (sy-ucomm would be blank) and somewhere in your code the value is being refreshed. You can debug thoroughly to find where the problem is.
You can assign a Function code for Enter. Go to the GUI Status of the Screen -> Function Keys -> You will find a icon Enter (the one with the tick mark in a green circular background) -> Assign Function code like 'ENTER'.
Now in your PAI, restrict your code saying
if sy-ucomm = 'ENTER'.

Clearing the TextArea texts when I press Enter key

How to clear the texts that I have typed into the TextArea when I press Enter Key?
I have now added a TextArea instance called input_txt to the stage and added an component event listener to detect when I press enter key. Then an event fires up which first reads the input to a string variable.
But next I need to automatically clear the texts in the TextArea.
How to do that?
function readInput(event:Event):void
    input = input_txt.text;
    trace(input);
    // removing texts in the text input area-------- how?
input_txt.addEventListener(ComponentEvent.ENTER, readInput);
Please help.
Thank You

ComponentEvent.ENTER occurs before the line feed is added to the text, and is not cancelable, so you'll probably need to set a flag and do the clearing in an Event.CHANGE handler. Something like this:
import fl.events.ComponentEvent;
input_text.addEventListener(ComponentEvent.ENTER, readInput);
input_text.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeHandler);
var clearing:Boolean=false;
function readInput(event:Event):void
    input = input_txt.text;
    trace(input);
    clearing=true;
function changeHandler(event:Event)
if(clearing)
input_text.text="";
clearing=false;

Just an advise
On it's first time fully charge and discharge - vice versa for three times. After that don’t drain your battery every day to 10-20% of its charge. You can actually expect battery problems by draining the battery frequently.
Roughly every 30 charges, deliberately discharge your battery to 10-15%, and fully charge to 100% afterwards.
This will help maintain the accuracy of the “fuel gauge” on the device (your battery meter or scale). It has nothing to do with the battery memory but helps maintain the accuracy of the device’s percentage of battery charge left.
Good luck

RE: PRESSING ENTER KEY TO MOVE TO A NEW LINE INSTEAD OF SENDING TEXT MESSAGE ON Q5

I'd rather use the enter key to move to a new line than to send message. I previously used this on curve 9300 and I'm frustrated right now I'm unable to figure how to move to the next line on this Q5. I thought the Q5 will be an improvement on the curve. I'll will be disappointed if there is no way about this. Can somebody help please?

Hi curio
From Blackberry Hub, tap three dots at bottom right > Setting > Text Messages > Use enter key to send > OFF. It will make a new line if you press enter key.

Is it possible ..??

There is an add-on called B1UP.
It has so many cool features.
When you press enter it takes you to the line level and does not add the document.

Hi Padma,
Create a onEnter event for the input field & inside that create a modal window. For that window u have to create a view also.
