$apply already in progress when sending a click event to a button?

I have a button on my page with an id="viewQuestions" on a page:

    <body ng-keydown="key($event);">

My code is checking for key hits like this:

    $scope.key = function ($event) {
        $scope.$broadcast('key', $event.keyCode)
    }

and in the controller:

 $scope.$on('key', function (e, key) {
        if (key == 13) {
            if (ts.test.current && ts.test.userTestId) {
                document.getElementById("viewQuestions").click();
            }               
        }
    });

When I run the code and click ENTER then I get this error:

 Error: [$rootScope:inprog] $apply already in progress

Can anyone give me advice on this. I just want to simulate the clicking of a button when the ENTER key is pressed. I did try solutions with forms but it does not meet my rather complicated needs.

Your click event is running digest cycle which is conflicting with current digest cycle, $timeout would help you in this situation. Wrap click event inside $timeout function.

Markup

<body ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="testCtrl" ng-keydown="key($event);">
    <button id="viewQuestions" type="button" ng-click="isButtonClicked = !isButtonClicked; test();"> Test</button>
    Is Button Clicked {{isButtonClicked}}
</body>

Code

$scope.$on('key', function (e, key) {
    if (key == 13) {
        if (ts.test.current && ts.test.userTestId) {
            $timeout(function(){
                angular.element(document.getElementById("viewQuestions")).trigger('click');
            })
        }               
    }
});

Whatever you write inside ng-click will get called.
