Disabling enter key for form

html, javascript, window

Solution

if you use jQuery, its quite simple. Here you go

$(document).keypress(
  function(event){
    if (event.which == '13') {
      event.preventDefault();
    }
});

Problem

I have been trying to disable the Enter key on my form. The code that I have is shown below. For some reason the enter key is still triggering the submit. The code is in my head section and seems to be correct from other sources. ``` disableEnterKey: function disableEnterKey(e){ var key; if(window.event) key = window.event.keyCode; //IE else key = e.which; //firefox return (key != 13); }, ```
