I want to know if the user clicked the input and after that pressed the enter key:
$('#AdsData tr td input').live('keypress', function (e) {
// if the Enter key is presses
if (e.which == 13) {
}
});
I tried it: clicked an input and pressed enter but the function wasn't called..
may be you can try doing with e.which and e.keyCode both this way:
var kc = e.which || e.keyCode;
if (kc == 13) {
and instead of keypress try with keyup or keydown
Try this
$('input').keydown(function(event) {
if(event.which == 13) {
alert('Enter.');
}
});
if the input element is part of a form, pressing enter will most likely submit the form. in that case try this:
$("#your_form").on("submit", function() {});

how to disable the "enter" key who give us the possibility to valid and send the form if the field is not valid ?
I only did the first part, which indicates that the field is not valid, but the "enter" key is always active . So my question is simple, how to disable the "enter" key button from the moment we see the "error-message" under the field
here is my test page ->
http://500milligrammes.com/facticemagazine/final/unsubscribe/
I've checked your website, to achieve what you asked for:
$("#name").on("keydown", function(e) {
if(e.which === 13 && $("#name").next(".error-message").is(":visible")) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
});
The submit is always send on keydown, so we need to add a keydown event handler.
Next is to check if the key was the enter key e.which === 13 and after that we just need to check if the error message is shown or not $("#name").next(".error-message").is(":visible").
If both conditions are true then just prevent the default action (submit) by calling e.preventDefault();
You can further improve this by also checking if the input is empty or not before accepting the enter key. The first keydown might be the enter key.
$("#name").on("keydown", function(e) {
if(e.which === 13) {
if($("#name").next(".error-message").is(":visible") || !$("#name").val()) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
}
});
You can check it using the keycode value (13) of enter key.
Something like the following should do:
$('form').on('keyup keypress', function(e) {
if (e.which == 13) {
if (!isValid()) { // your validation function
e.preventDefault();
return false;
} else {
$(this).submit();
}
}
});
Try adding this when you show the error:
$(document).on('keyup keypress', 'form input[type="text"]', function(e) {
if(e.which == 13) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;`enter code here`
}
});
I want to hide the "suggested" options list that appears underneath the search input when you start typing something on the Wordpress search plugin, what I need specifically is to fire the "Escape" key event when I press down the "Delete" key, I tried the following jquery function but it doesn't work as I expected.
$('form.search-form').keydown(function (e) {
// keycode for Delete key
if (e.keyCode == 46) {
var a = $.Event("keydown");
// keycode for Esc key
a.which = 27;
a.keyCode = 27;
$(document).trigger(a);
}});
Any help? Thanks in advance
Updated (original question was unclear)
Live demo here (click).
When the delete key is pressed, change the keyCode to the esc key, then use trigger to simulate a press of esc.
$('input').keydown(function (e) {
// keycode for delete
if (e.keyCode == 46) {
console.log('delete key pressed.');
e.keyCode = 27;
$(this.target).trigger(e);
}
});
$('input').keydown(function (e) {
// keycode for esc
if (e.keyCode == 27) {
console.log('esc key pressed.');
}
});
Old answer (leaving this here because it is similar.)
Your question is an X/Y problem. You don't need to fire another keydown, event, you just need to repeat the same functionality, so extract the esc event's code into a function and reuse in the del key's event. Live demo here (click).
$('input').keydown(function (e) {
// keycode for delete
if (e.keyCode == 46) {
myFunction(e);
}
});
$('input').keydown(function (e) {
// keycode for esc
if (e.keyCode == 27) {
myFunction(e);
}
});
function myFunction() {
alert('Look, Ma! Code reuse!');
}
Better yet, do this! Live demo here (click).
$('input').keydown(function (e) {
// keycodes for delete and esc
if (e.keyCode == 46 || e.keyCode == 27) {
myFunction(e);
}
});
function myFunction() {
alert('Look, Ma! Code optimization!');
}
I have a form with a textfield inside and I am trying to disable the default behavior when the browser submits the whole form if the user presses Enter while the textfield is selected.
$('#recaptcha_response_field').keydown(function(event) { if (event.keyCode == 13) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
event.stopImmediatePropagation();
alert("You Press ENTER key");
return false;
}
});
Currently am getting "You Press ENTER key" and the default behavior isn't overridden.
Try this:
$(document).on("keypress", 'form', function (e) {
var code = e.keyCode || e.which;
if (code == 13) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
});
This will prevent the form submit on keypress
DEMO HERE
I found this and it works for me.
<input type="text" name="somename" id="someid" value="" onkeypress="return event.keyCode!=13">
To prevent the script from blocking the enter key on other elements such as on a textarea. Change the target from "form" to "input".
$(document).on("keypress", "input", function (e) {
var code = e.keyCode || e.which;
if (code == 13) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
});
If none of the above solution is working for you , and you are using javascript anyway , why don't you use button type as 'button' <input type='button'> and submit it using javascript
$('#form_id').submit();
U can use this script to prevent enter on entire from.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).on("keypress", 'form', function (e) {
if (e.target.className.indexOf("allowEnter") == -1) {
var code = e.keyCode || e.which;
if (code == 13) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
}
});
</script>
you put the classname to which control need to use enter
In a dynamic form, I have the following code to trap 'enter' key.
$(document).bind('keypress', function (e) {
if (e.keyCode == 13) {
e.preventDefault();
}
});
Occasionally, there is an element like HTMLTextAreaElement which accept 'enter' key.
how do I unbind preventDefault only for HTMLTextAreaElement.
TIA.
Try this:
if (e.which == 13 && e.target.localName !== 'textarea') {
$("html *:not(textarea)").bind('keypress', function (e) {
if (e.keyCode == 13) {
e.preventDefault();
}
});

My setup: jQuery 1.6.2
I have this HTML
<textarea class="comment_box"> Write a comment...</textarea>
And the following Javascript
<script>
$('.comment_box').keydown(function (e){
if(e.keyCode == 13){
alert('you pressed enter ^_^');
}
})
</script>
When I press the enter key in the textarea, nothing triggers
EDIT Oops, cut and paste error, I do have $ in my code and it still doesn't work, must be something else going on.
My bad, it is a user operator error, it does work. Sorry for the confusion.
$('.comment_box').keypress(function(event) {
// Check the keyCode and if the user pressed Enter (code = 13)
if (event.keyCode == 13) {
alert('you pressed enter ^_^');
}
});
Thats it
Check out this answer:
jQuery Event Keypress: Which key was pressed?
var code = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
if(code == 13) { //Enter keycode
//Do something
}
For jQuery you need to use the $ to specify.
$('.comment_box').keyd
should do it.
