I have several input fields text on my page:
<input type="text">
The form is submitted when I press ENTER in some of them, which is what I don't want. What can cause such behavior?
I triple checked and I do not have submit buttons (actually I do not have any buttons at all)
You could use a bit of Javascript placed in the head section of your HTML page to disable submission on enter clicked in an input field:
<script type="text/javascript">
function stopRKey(evt) {
var evt = (evt) ? evt : ((event) ? event : null);
var node = (evt.target) ? evt.target : ((evt.srcElement) ? evt.srcElement : null);
if ((evt.keyCode == 13) && (node.type=="text")) {return false;}
}
document.onkeypress = stopRKey;
</script>
You are probably submitting some of your forms via ajax calls in which you prevent the default browser behavior. That is why some of your forms are not submitted when you hit the enter.
To make sure all of your forms do not submit when enter is pressed, you can bind a custom function to all of your forms which detects when enter key is pressed. In this function you can prevent the default browser behavior.
$('form').keydown(function(e){
if(e.keyCode === 13) {
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
});
