Handling the “Enter” / “Return” key in Chrome

Question

I have an AJAX-y type page. When the user clicks \"GO\" I need to execute a specific javascript function. I also want to simulate the \"GO\" click when a user hits \"Enter\"

Answer 1

Assuming you have a form:

$('#theForm').submit(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    goButton();
    return false; // just to be sure.
});

You need to prevent the submit event from the form, which gets called when the form has focus and a user presses enter.
