Detect the Enter key in a text input field

Question

I\'m trying to do a function if enter is pressed while on specific input.

What I\'m I doing wrong?

$(document).keyup(function (e) {
    if ($(\".inpu         


        

Answer 1

The best way I found is using keydown ( the keyup doesn't work well for me).

Note: I also disabled the form submit because usually when you like to do some actions when pressing Enter Key the only think you do not like is to submit the form :)

$('input').keydown( function( event ) {
    if ( event.which === 13 ) {
        // Do something
        // Disable sending the related form
        event.preventDefault();
        return false;
    }
});
