Answer 1

 var e = $.Event( "keyup", { keyCode: 13 } );
    $('#yourInput').trigger(e);

Worked for me, instead of 'which', I used 'keyCode'

Answer 2

Simulate enter keypress

var e = jQuery.Event("keypress");
        e.which = 13 
        e.keyCode = 13
        $('#email').focus();
        $('#email').trigger(e);

capture enter keypress

$('#email').keypress(function (e) {
if (e.which == '13') {
    alert('code');
}});

Answer 3

You can do this -

var e = $.Event( "keypress", { which: 13 } );
$('#yourInput').trigger(e);
