In web client I put a button to enter find mode. When the user wants to perform the search, he has to click a button, but i’d like to use Enter key (as in smart client). Is it possible?

Attach the OnAction function that is linked to your button to the Search Input field and it will work in WebClient. You can also link your OnAction function to onDataChange on a Combobox - although this can confuse users if they are not expecting it.
