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 wanted to replace the textfield in the script below to textarea but then the javascript function will stop working. How can I make the textarea works as the textfield when the enter key is pressed ? Please advise. or is there any way i can increase the lines of the textfield?
Code:
<script>
function handleEnter(e)
{
var characterCode;

I am trying to get my form which is in PHP to submit when pressing the Enter key.Seems to be an issue with the "text" input
View 3 Replies View RelatedMay 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?

I know this is a very common problem people are having, but I can't seem to find a fix that works for me.
I'm have a simple text search box with a submit button with the following code:
<FORM NAME ="courseSearchBox" METHOD ="POST" ACTION = "search.php">
<INPUT TYPE = "TEXT" NAME="courseSearchText" onkeypress="entersub(this.form)">
<INPUT TYPE = "Submit" Name = "courseSearch" VALUE = "Search For Courses">

I have a user who wants his form submitted when he presses [Enter].
Is it possible? If so, how?
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 am trying to submit form on press Enter but its does not work in IE8, works in chrome, and mozilla, I dont know what I made the mistake in my coding.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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?
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?
I need a piece of javascript that will allow a form to be submitted
when Enter is pressed for IE6 and 7, Firefox 2, and recent versions of
Safari. It is for a login page that has two textboxes: a "Login" and
a "Password". The "Login Button" is actually a standard image with an
onClick event handler to submit the form, because we use a mouseover
effect. (That is, it is not INPUT TYPE="IMAGE" but rather an IMAGE
tag with added.)
I found some code that works in IE, which is below, but it only works
in IE. I am sure there is a simple cross-browser fragment of
Javascript that will do the trick, so please point me in the right
direction. Code:
i'm using this shoutbox script since a while and it is really annoying because we can't submit the form just by pressing "enter" on the keyboard...

I have an ajax form updater which is working absolutely fine for input type="text" fields using the change event to respond when the value has been updated.
$(".myInput").change(function() {
valueToPost = $(this).val();
// post valueToPost with $.ajax, works successfully

I'm trying to click a link and insert some text into a textarea. I can do this by
Code:
document.getElementById("comment").value = insertedtext;
But I want to insert it like when you hit the enter key, so there is the return spaces in it. I tried using <br> but that shows up since it is viewed as a string. I tried using .innerHTML instead of .value and that didn't work, least it didn't in Firefox. There a way to do this? If not I'll have to turn it into [br] and change it to <br> after submission.
i have a search form, and the default value is "enter text here"when the user click the submit button, i would like to check if the value of my text input is "enter text here" and if it is, then don't submit the form (popup a warning or something)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.
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 one text box to enter a name then when clicking submit the there name is to appear on the last document.write line in my code. Or if the press clear the text box is cleared out. There is my code so far.

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 have a form with a bunch of selects and a single text input.Form data is sent via $.post whenever the inputs are changed, so a submit button isn't needed. The form does contain one regular button (using the button tag, not the input tag). The button shows a jQuery UI dialog when clicked.
If you press the enter key in the text field, the browser submits the form but it also acts like you clicked the button (the dialog appears). That makes no sense to me. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?I've already tried adding a few things to the form's submit handler, but they don't make a difference.
$('#filters').submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
clearTimeout(window.refresh_timer);
