Disable Submit Form On Enter Key Press?
Mar 31, 2010
Wondering if there's a better way than what I'm doing to disable that when a user presses Enter, the form is submitted.
I'm catching the enter key onkeydown events. And it works fine on input boxes but I noticed that if a user selects something on a drop down menu and presses the enter key, the form is also submitted. As far as I know drop downs don't have an onkeypress event.
Is there a way to cancel form submission when the Enter key is pressed? Or any ideas how to catch this event on a drop down?

I have a form with the following structure:
<form onsubmit="getsearchdata();">
lots of input boxes here
<input type="submit" name="submit" onsubmit="getsearchdata();">
</form>
In Opera, whenever someone presses the <enterbutton, the form is
submitted and the onsubmit does not event get any attention. When the
submit button is clicked, it obviously works.

May I know how can I actually let the user submit a form by punching the enter key instead of clicking on the submit button.
It works in the single textfield but it doesn't once we changed it to multiple lines textfields form element.

I am using the following script on a password form. When the user types in the correct password and clicks on the LOGIN button eveythings works like it should (index2.htm comes up). I would like it to do the same thing if the user presses the ENTER key after typing in the password. I am not a JAVASCRIPT Programmer. I found some examples and encorporated them below. When you type in the wrong password and hit ENTER, you get the proper alert message. however, when you type in the right password and hit ENTER, the screen just refreshes and stays with index.htm. I need to to display index2.htm in the same window. Any thoughts?
Code:
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
function entsub(event,lform) {
if (event && event.which == 13)
logIn();
else

</FORM>

function entersub(formz) {

How do I make ENTER key act as a submit request?
As it is now, the user has to actually click "submit" for the form to
be submitted (in IE at least).
Is there any way to make the enter key submit the form? Code:

I have a form, which has a textarea. Though I'm wanting it to be able to submit with the enter key. Can anyone help me? Everything I've tried either refreshes, or does a linebreak.
Heres the code to the whole page, seeing as the form takes up most of it.
<?
require("scripts/function.s");
$username = $x;
$password = $y;
require("scripts/verify.s");

I have a page with many forms that I need to change from a post to an ajax call. That part is working, no problem, but now I want to disable the submit button while it's waiting on the server response and then re-enable it when the response comes back.
Here's what I have:
$(function() {
$('form').each(function() {
$(this).submit(function(){
[code]...
I can't figure out what my selector should be to get the submit button of the form that's being submitted. What should I be using instead? Also, if the call errors out, I'd like to just post the form as usual.

I have a form without a submit button. It gets submitted programmatically with document.form.submit().
What I need is to be able to disable this form's submit capability on page load and then reenable it at some later point. Remember there is no 'input' button element.
Code:
What I've tried so far is like this:
savedSubmit = document.inputs.submit;
document.inputs.submit = None;
then later:
document.inputs.submit = savedSubmit;
but this does not work. How can I do this?

I have a form that I built, and I replaced the submit button with an image.When you click the image, it calls the .submit() jQuery function and submits the form.Because I am not using the normal submit input button, hitting enter in most browsers won't submit the form.I think that users are used to this happening, so I would like to replicate this.Can I trigger the .submit() function when the enter button is hit?

I am trying to get a form to submit when the user hits enter. I am only using one input, a text box.
I have tried countless scripts to do this.... obviously it's not the scripts, it's me. If someone could point out what's wrong with my code, why its not submitting the form, please post! Thanks
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
function submitForm() {
if (window.event.keyCode == 13)
{
document.form.submit();
}
}
</SCRIPT>
<form name="form" method="post" action="">
<input style="width: 454px;" type="text" name="new_message" onKeyPress="submitForm()">
<input style="width: 40px;" type="submit" name="submit" value="Send">
</form>
That one was the most simple. I tried a few others too, some more complex.

I am working on a online video portal build on flash/actionScript.
If I enter a url of a video when another video is playing, it doesn't playing the new video but it keeps on playing the old video. The reason I think is as it is a RIA, it doesn't refreshes the page and looks for a flash object and its already cached so it doesn't makes any http request in order to play the new video.
So I am planning to claer the cache.
how to clear the cache when a user enters something in address bar and press enter key?

My form isn't returning any results when submitting the form if the user hits the <spacebar> or the <enter> key on the keyboard when tabbed over the image submit button.
<input name="Submit_notes" type="image" value="Submit_notes" src="images/pp_but_blu_addentry.gif" />
Should I make it so the user can't submit with the keyboard? (if so how) or is there another way?

Everywhere proposed solution
$('form').submit(function() {
$(":submit").attr("disabled", "disabled");
});
doesn't work for me, because in that case the button name and value won't be included in the request to the server (because the button is disabled), and I've got a situation where I need to know which button was clicked to submit the form.Is there any way to disable the submit button AFTER the form submission, so it would be included in the request?

What I want to do is: disable the submit button while not all form fields are filled out and eneble it when the form fields are filled out. Disabling works, the enabling doesn't, at least not 'automaticly'. All of the code is in the $(document).ready(function(){}
I have this code:
checkAll();
function checkAll()
{
