Making Enter Key To Start New Line On Submit Forms
Mar 1, 2009
I haven't really used javasript in my site so far, but I think I need it here. I have a large text box where the user can enter several lines of text. The problem is, that I want the enter key to start a new line when the user is entering text, rather than submitting what has so far been entered. What I've got so far has stopped the enter key from submitting, but has also prevented it from starting a new line:
<form action='aaa.[php]' method='POST'>
<input type='text' name='text' onkeydown="if (event.keyCode==13){return false}" >
<input type='submit' name='zzz' value='Submit'>
This completely disables the enter key. How to make it so that the enter key starts new lines?

I would like to allow the user to be able to use the Enter key in lieu of the submit button on a page that has several forms.I'm assuming that toaccomplish that I need to detect which form's elements are being edited (have focus?) and programmatically fire the submit button's action for that form.How do I do something like that?

I want to know your opinion on where to start to make a floating box script, and why.
I've thought about making a floating div with css and javascript to make the box move.

I'm about to give up with this one. I know this is possible in IE. In fact, I think this is the only thing IE does properly.Here is the working code for IE that should work in other browsers (Firefox,Chrome...) but doesn't.
document.body.onkeydown = function(event) {
e = event || window.event;
if(e.keyCode==13) {
[code]....

I have a text area that the user enters information into this text area then becomes a string and is displayed. Currently if the user presses enter it shows in the test area as a new line however in the string it is only a space. How can I get the string to recognise and display the enter as a new line.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" >

I have a simple form that works via a suggested results system [URL]
While in firefox the go button is greyed out and enter doesn't submit the form in IE pressing the enter key submits the form.
Is there any way with a bit of javascript to stop IE from doing a form submission on enter but only for this form (since there are many more on the site)
<form action="index.php" method="GET" name="qsform" id="qsform"><input type="hidden" name="p" id="p" value="compdetails" style="border:1px solid #000000;" /><input type="text" name="quicksearch" id="quicksearch" value="Find Company" style="border:1px solid #000000;" onFocus="clearText(this)" onBlur="clearText(this)" /><input type="hidden" name="cid" id="cid" value="" style="border:1px solid #000000;" /> <input type="submit" name="go" id="go" value="Go" disabled="true" /></form>

I'm running two different forms on one page.Each form goes to a different place - one form does stuff on a different server and one form does stuff on the same server.This is being accomplished by using the following script (found here on WebDeveloper)
HTML Code:
<script language='javascript'>
<!--
function doit()
[code]....
The first form starts like this:
HTML Code:
<form id='form1' name='form1' action="http://www.coolcart.net/shop/coolcart.aspx/starkeepsakes" method='POST'>
The second form starts like this:
HTML Code:
<form id='form2' name="form2" method="POST" action="attachscript.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" target='_blank'>
There is no submit function in the forms.
After the two forms are listed, there's one link that processes both forms at the same time when clicked:
HTML Code:
<div align="center"><a href='javascript:doit()'>Click Here To Submit</a></div>
Here's the good news: THIS WORKS. This is not the problem.The problem is my client wants most/all of the content in form2 to be filled out. If the fields are not filled out, then something happened that says in effect "yo. fill that out!"I've tried to use javascript validation scripts and they don't work. Presumably because they depend upon
HTML Code:
<input type="submit" name="submit">
Which is NOT how the form is told to post.

I have a user that insists they have web applications that do this, and wants the one I'm building to do it too...
You have a table on an html form. As the user changes one or more fields in a table row and moves to the next line, the changed row should AUTOMATICALLY be sent back to the server and updated in the database.
If the user moves BACK to a line that's already been changed, and changed a field, a popup should display and ask "if the user really wants to change the field". If so, again, it should AUTOMATICALLY be sent to the server and updated in the database...
Ignoring the horridness of making that many round trips to the server and banging the database for every line, is there a way to AUTOMATICALLY do the equivalent of a submit and post the changed table row back to the php script?

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'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>
