I need to change default actions of two events.
When I press "enter" one action occurs, when I press "shift-enter" another. I need to switch it. I means if I press "enter" than "shift-enter" action occurs. I tried something like this but if doesn't work.
f(evt.keyCode == 13) {
if(!evt.shiftKey){
evt.preventDefault();
evt.shiftKey = true;
var e = jQuery.Event("keydown");
e.which = 13;
e.shiftKey = true;
$(wym._doc).trigger(e);
Is there any way to do it?
Here try this :
$(function() {
$('#myinput').keypress(function(e) {
if(e.shiftKey && e.which == 13) {
alert('shift enter');
} else if(e.which == 13) {
alert('enter');
}
});
});

I need to create a jQuery script to ignore the execution of the keyup or keypress event listener function and execute it only if I press the Enter key on the keyboard.
$(document).on("keypress", "input", function(e) {
var keyCode = e.keyCode || e.which;
if (keyCode != 13) {
console.log('Not enter')
} else {
}
});
Search for event.preventDefault() on the jQuery docs
$(document).on("keypress","input", function(e) {
var keyCode = e.keyCode || e.which;
if (keyCode != 13) {
console.log('Not enter')
} else {
e.preventDefault(); // prevent default action if not enter
}
});
How can I catch, for example, tab+t combination with jQuery? I've found a lot of examples with alt, shift and ctrl, since event object contains special flags in order to understand if, for example, alt was pressed. But there is not such thing for tab.
This should work. It's a bit convoluted and there is likely an easier way, but it works fine.
JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/spybhhxc/
var tabdown = false;
var tdown = false;
$(document).keydown(function(e) {
if(e.which == 9) {
tabdown = true;
}
if(e.which === 84)
{
tdown = true;
}
if(tabdown && tdown)
{
//do your thing
}
});
$(document).keyup(function(e) {
if(e.which == 9) {
tabdown = false;
}
if(e.which === 84)
{
tdown = false;
}
});
This presents a problem though, as once you press tab, the document is unfocused as the tab key navigates to elements in a browser. You would be much better off using something like alt or ctrl which don't interact with the browser.
We can have a tab key pressed [tabPressed] variable which will be set to true on key down and unset the same on its key up event. We will using the tab key pressed[tabPressed] variable to check whether it is in pressed state during the other key press activities. The tab keycode is 9.
jsfiddle link http://jsfiddle.net/e3Lveyj2/
var tabPressed=false;
function handleKeyDown(e) {
var evt = (e==null ? event:e);
if(evt.keyCode == 9){
tabPressed=true;
}
if ((tabPressed) && (evt.keyCode == 84)) {
alert ("You pressed 'Tab+t'")
}
}
function handleKeyUp(e) {
var evt = (e==null ? event:e);
if(evt.keyCode == 9){
tabPressed=false;
}
}
document.onkeydown = handleKeyDown;
document.onkeyup = handleKeyUp;
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!');
}
Having some problem cross browser. I need to Support IE7-9, my site is set to IE7 standards - cannot be changed. Then i need to support latest chrome, safari and firefox.
I want to hit a keyup event in a textbox on enter. Problem is i have a keypress event added to the form on that page which is submitting the form which i dont want to happen.
Sample application would be like this.
JAVASCRIPT:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("form").bind("keypress", function (e) {
var code = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
if (code == 13) {
$("#log1").append("Key press - Form event");
}
});
$("#myInput1").bind("keypress", function (e) {
var code = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
if (code != 13) {
return true;
}
$("#log2").append("Enter pressed - input event");
//if (!e) var e = window.event;
e.cancelBubble = true;
e.returnValue = false;
if (e.stopPropagation) {
e.stopPropagation();
//e.preventDefault();
}
});
$("#myInput1").bind("keyup", function (e) {
var code = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
if (code != 13) {
return true;
}
$("#log1").append("Key up - Enter pressed - input event");
});
});
HTML
<li onkeypress="alert('hi')">
<input id="myInput1" type="text" />
<div id="log1"></div>
<div id="log2"></div>
</li>
If i use e.preventDefault() - keyup event is not hit, if i dont use it, page is posting back.
I want to see "Key up - Enter pressed - input event" to be written to screen on pressing enter, across all browsers.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Finally was able to do it like this:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("form").bind("keypress", function (e) {
var code = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
if (code == 13) {
$("#log1").append("Key press - Form event");
}
});
$("#myInput1").bind("keypress", function (e) {
var code = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
if (e.keyCode != 13) {
return true;
}
$("#log2").append("Enter pressed - input event");
e.stopPropagation();
sampleE = e.keyCode;
$("#myInput1").trigger("keyup");
return false;
});
$("#myInput1").bind("keyup", function (e) {
if (!e.keyCode)
e.keyCode = sampleE;
if (e.keyCode != 13) {
return true;
}
$("#log1").append("Key up - Enter pressed - input event");
});
});
var sampleE = null;
I know this is not the best of the options but this is working. Thanks All.
i try to capture this key : alt+arrow down, alt+arrow up.
First, i capture alt key down :
var isAlt = false;
$(document).keydown(function (e) {
if(e.which == 18){isAlt=true;}
}).keyup(function (e) {
if(e.which == 18){isAlt=false;}
});
this code is ok, and alt keyup is detected.
But, if i add arrow key down, when arrow keydown, it's ok, but after alt keyup is not detected :
var isAlt = false;
$(document).keydown(function (e) {
if(e.which == 18){isAlt=true;}else{
if(e.which == 38 && isAlt == true) {
//action code here work
console.log('action ok');
}
}
}).keyup(function (e) {
if(e.which == 18){isAlt=false;}
});
You can try this on console, and after log 'action ok', you need press again alt key for "isAlt = false".
But, this code work fine on Chrome.
Anyone have one idea for correct this bug ?
You need to check the event.altKey property: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/KeyboardEvent
