Enable Enter key in multltiline textbox

Question

Added ltBody onkeydown  returneventkeyCode13gt into a VS2008 masterpage Did this to disable the Enter key from basically doing a button click event The code works great however we use multiline textboxes that were accepting Enter to do a newline in the textbox Now the multiline textbox does nothing when Enter is pressed Is there an override that would work on a single form that loads behind the master page Ref your Disable Enter key in TextBox to avoid postback in ASPNet
