Ideally you should only have one line of code in click(), this.onclick(). This code should be the same, no matter what kind of control you use. In the custom onclick() method you put whatever code you want to run. To make this work, you can't use the baseclasses, you must use subclassed classes where this method is added. In your case the keypress() will call _searchcmd.onclick() which then holds the code you want to run, both when you click the button and when you press Enter. Or even better, the actual code is in a form method, called from both onclick() and keypress().
