Menu
I have an HTML input which is a textfield. When I am pressing the enter, this will call the submit, which is normal.
Now, I would like to do something else when Enter is clicked on that textBox.
I am trying something like that:
<input type="text" id="first_page" onPaste="" onkeydown="if (event.keyCode == 13) alert('enter')" /> The alert works well but the submit is still done. My page is reloading after that.
Could you help me please.

Use preventDefault() event method to Prevent form submission on the “Enter” key pressed in JavaScript. Enter key keycode is 13, so you can check in if statement.
In a simplest way: $("#myinput"). keydown(function (e) { if(e. which == 13) e. preventDefault(); }); The key is to use "keydown" and event.
The simplest solution to prevent the form submission is to return false on submit event handler defined using the onsubmit property in the HTML <form> element.
getElementById("testForm"); form. addEventListener("submit",function(e){e. preventDefault(); return false;}); This solution will now prevent the user from submit using the enter Key and will not reload the page, or take you to the top of the page, if your form is somewhere below.
write return false; and check it

Using jquery
<script> $('#first_page').keypress(function(e) { if (e.keyCode == '13') { e.preventDefault(); //your code here } }); </script> using javascript
<input type="text" id="first_page" onPaste="" onkeydown="if (event.keyCode == 13) { alert('enter');return false;}" /> If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
