Javascript enter key pressed event alternative for mobile site

Question

I have a quickfeedback widget in my site which has only one textbox. When user presses enter key, the feedback is automatically sent using ajax. But this doesn't work in mobile devices like android, j2me and so on. Is there any alternative that works in both desktop and mobile? Adding a submit button is not acceptable for me.

Answer 1

I just checked on android, when you type something and press "Go" (enter alternative?) it will trigger an event and the key code is actually 13 so the same as Enter on desktop keyboards.

Edit:

I'd suggest debugging the code and checking whether the submit is actually triggered but maybe the key code isn't always 13? Just guessing..

Edit2:

Test this code on your mobile. When I press "Go" the input value changes to "sent!" which proves that it works.

Answer 2

Why not use onblur in combination with enter key? If one can press enter, it'll work as is. If one can't, they'll just leave input and then onblur will do work.
