so what you are asking is this?
How do I get the onchange to fire when the enter key is pushed??

If that is the case,
put the function the display() in the if statement of key13

if (keyPressed == 13){
window.status = 'Done'
display();
return;
}

Is that what you were asking??

nope, assuming the adv_search() is from include file. and i want it to use for 50 pages with dropdown element and have onchange event with diff. function called for every dropdown element.I mean whatever the function called in onchage event still it'll be fires when entered pressed.

if (keyPressed == 13){
window.status = 'Done'
obj.onchage(); /*this is a sample only, this means that all function under this event will be executed. */
return;
}
