I think that your main problem is this code

<input type=&quot;Submit&quot; name=&quot;Submit&quot; value=&quot;<%response.write dictLanguage.Item(Session(&quot;language&quot;)&&quot;_customerauthenticateform_2&quot;)%>&quot; ID=&quot;Submit1&quot; onClick=&quot;if(checkForm()){document.register.submit()}&quot; >

You should do something like this and the form will work without any onkeypress script code.

<form method=&quot;post&quot; action=&quot;referer.asp?ty=lg&quot; ID=&quot;FormReg&quot; name=&quot;register&quot;

onsubmin="return checkForm(this)"

                <tr> 
                  <td width=&quot;41%&quot; rowspan=&quot;2&quot; valign=&quot;top&quot;></td>
                  <td width=&quot;22%&quot; align=center><font color=&quot;#666666&quot; face=&quot;Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif&quot;><strong><br>

            <%response.write dictLanguage.Item(Session(&quot;language&quot;)&&quot;_customerauthenticateform_7&quot;)%></strong></font></td>
                  <td width=&quot;37%&quot; align =right><br>
 <%validate &quot;username&quot;, &quot;username&quot;%><%textbox &quot;username&quot;,&quot;&quot;, 20, &quot;textbox&quot;%>                   </td>
                </td>
                </tr>
                <tr> 
                  <td align=center><font color=&quot;#666666&quot; face=&quot;Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif&quot;><strong><%response.write dictLanguage.Item(Session(&quot;language&quot;)&&quot;_customerauthenticateform_5&quot;)%></strong></font></td>
                  <td align =right valign=&quot;bottom&quot;> <%validate &quot;password&quot;, &quot;required&quot;%><%textbox &quot;password&quot;,&quot;&quot;, 20, &quot;password&quot;%>
                                    </td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                  <td height=&quot;33&quot; valign=&quot;top&quot;> </td>
                  <td align=center> </td>
                  <td align =right valign=&quot;bottom&quot;>
          <input type=&quot;Submit&quot; name=&quot;Submit&quot; value=&quot;<%response.write dictLanguage.Item(Session(&quot;language&quot;)&&quot;_customerauthenticateform_2&quot;)%>&quot; ID=&quot;Submit1&quot;>
                </tr>
                <tr> 
                  <td colspan=&quot;3&quot;><br></td>
                </tr>
              </table>    
</form>
Using 
function checkForm(frm)
{

if(frm.username.value==&quot;&quot;)
{
 alert(&quot;Username empty!&quot;)
 frm.username.focus()
 //cancel the submit.
 return false
}

//if all ok submit form with returning true
return true;
}

This should work with presing Enter also.

Eh, the event name is wrong
Instead of onsubmin should be onsubmit
Anyway, if you want to use event handlers for the form or submit button you should always use "return functionName()"
When function returns true it sends the event to the parent elements(Event Bubling, something like event.cancelBuble=false, by default) if it's false cancels event bubling to other elements there for, form wont submit
(event.cancelBuble=true)

Best way is to use the onsubmit event of the form, also you can send the form reference using this as function parameter which helps in finding the form controls.
