Submitting a form on 'Enter' with jQuery?

I have a bog-standard login form - an email text field, a password field and a submit button on an AIR project that's using HTML/jQuery. When I hit Enter on the form, the entire form's contents vanish, but the form isn't submitted. Does anyone know if this is a Webkit issue (Adobe AIR uses Webkit for HTML), or if I've bunged things up?

I tried:

$('.input').keypress(function (e) {
  if (e.which == 13) {
    $('form#login').submit();
  }
});

But that neither stopped the clearing behavior, or submitted the form. There's no action associated with the form - could that be the issue? Can I put a javascript function in the action?


$('.input').keypress(function (e) {
  if (e.which == 13) {
    $('form#login').submit();
    return false;    //<---- Add this line
  }
});

NOTE: You accepted bendewey's answer, but it is incorrect with its description of e.preventDefault(). Check out this stackoverflow answer: event.preventDefault() vs. return false

Essentially, "return false" is the same as calling e.preventDefault and e.stopPropagation() .


In addition to return false as Jason Cohen mentioned. You may have to also preventDefault

e.preventDefault();

Don't know if it will help, but you can try simulating a submit button click, instead of directly submitting the form. I have the following code in production, and it works fine:

    $('.input').keypress(function(e) {
        if(e.which == 13) {
            jQuery(this).blur();
            jQuery('#submit').focus().click();
        }
    });

Note: jQuery('#submit').focus() makes the button animate when enter is pressed.
