Getting Input Field To Submit With Enter Key?
Oct 27, 2011
I've been trying to figure out with a search box I've added how it can submit by pressing the 'enter' key rather than just clicking a 'submit' button beside a form. I've tried onkeypress but as soon as you press one button the field submits. I've also seen you can do with keycode==13 but I'm not sure how to add it into my code.
Code:
<input type="text" name="Search" id="Search" class="searchBox" />
<a href="#" onclick="getContentURL(Search.value);"><img src="/img/magnifying-glass.gif" class="searchImg" /></a>
<script type="text/javascript">
function getContentURL(sSearch){
window.location ="/search/pages/Results.aspx?k="+sSearch+"&s=All%20Sites";
}
</script>

I want to bypass from one input field to other one by <enter> (<return>) key pressing instead of default behaviour (<tab> key pressing).But there was default form action on <enter> keydown event was performed. Remember that <enter> keydown event on form means default "Form submit" action. How to prevent default action, form submission, in time of <enter> keydown event processing?
How to modify following code? I use hotkeys jQuery plugin for key binding to input fields.
$().ready(function(){
$(myInputFieldsSelector).bind('keydown','return',function(evt){
//find next input field in the form MyNextInput
MyNextInput.focus().select();
[Code].....

I got an unusual request form a client. I got a form and I have to get values from certain input fields and assign them as a value to a hidden field and then submit it through php.I'm using mootools (1.11). I was tinkering around that for a day and wasn't able to solve it. Here is the html:
Code:
<div>
<label for="primary_domain0">Primary Domain Name <span class="req">*</span></label>

I'd like to create a quick and dirty validation method for a form. It's not meant to be very secure.
The way I picture it working is this - there is an input field that asks for a password. If the user types in the password correctly, the "submit" div tag will change from "none" to "block". , which will display the submit button. I just am not familiar with JS enough to know if that's possible.
Here's what I'm starting with:

I am having a form with two input fields. I want to enter some text in the first input field and then the second field should get the same text. Is there a simple way (maybe a plugin) to do this with jQuery? It would be perfect if I even could output all these input fields values as normal text in <p> or <li> tags.

I currently have a form that uses ajax to check the entered values to validate them. My problem is that I want the js function to run when the enter key is pressed.
I had this:
My idea was that when they press enter, it will run loginUser(), and not reload the page.
It works in Chrome perfectly. In IE and FF though loginUser() doesn't get ran. The return false though works, so the page isn't being reloaded.
I've also tried this (Without the space in javascript of course):
That didn't work in any browser (loginUser() was never ran).
So does anyone have a way to get this to work? I also have jQuery included in case someone knows a way to do it with jQuery.

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

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 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 have a text box and everytime I press enter on it I get the form submited. How can I avoid that behaviour? I tried:
for the text onKeyDown="donotsubmit()"
Code:
function donotsubmit {
var keyCode = event.keyCode ? event.keyCode : event.which ? event.which : event.charCode;
//alert(keyCode);
if (keyCode == 13) {
document.form1.submit()=false;
}// if
}
But dosen't seem to work.

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.

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?
