{
//hide();
qWarning("Login Sucessful");
}

In order to achieve that you can try

@okButton->setDefault(true)@

check "QPushButton::setDefault()":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qpushbutton.html#default-prop

Edit: This works for a QDialog

It didnt work i tried sam, I am using QMainWindow...Is there any way to make it work in qmainwindow or should i have to change to qdialog...?

[Sam]

It works for QDialog as per the documentation. In order to work for the QMainWindow you can override/handle the keyPressEvent().

[Jeroentjehome]

It might be a good idea to use a QDialog to handle this. Then give the dialog a parent (your main window). You MainWindow file will then be must shorter (if you make the dialog in it's own cpp file etc). In the MainWindow you won't be bothered by the signals (Done in the QDialog) etc.
Might look like this:
@
QYourDialog LoginBox = new QYourDialog;
if (LoginBox->exec() == QDialog::Accepted)
{
if (LoginBox->u_name->text() == "a")
{
// Oke??
}
else
{ // Wrong??
}
}@
