in reply to (SOLVED)How To Simulate "Enter" Key Stroke using WWW::Selenium

Try key_press(), or perhaps fire_event (if you can figure out what event gets fired when you press enter).

    I tried $sel->key_press("q","\13"); but still nothing is happening.

      How about this (from the docs):
      $sel->submit($form_locator)

    Submit the specified form. This is particularly useful for forms w
+ithoutsubmit buttons, e.g. single-input "Search" forms.

        $form_locator is an element locator for the form you want to s
+ubmit

        Actually, the entire html page is like this: 
        <html>

        As you can see, there is no form tag and so if i try to use the submit option, its throwing me an error.

        Error: Error requesting http://localhost:5555/selenium-server/driver/:
        ERROR: Command execution failure. Please search the forum at http://clearspace.o penqa.org for error details from the log window. The error message is: formElem ent.submit is not a function
