Prevent form submission on enter key

Question

How can I prevent the enter key from submitting the form in angular?

Is there a way to catch the 13 key and disable it or set the form as invalid unless submitting f

Answer 1

You can catch the default form submit in your controller using ng-submit on the form tag and it will prevent a submit:

alternatively, if you really wanted to catch the key events, there are also directives for that which pass an event you can call stop:
