I found out today the keypress event is not fired when hitting the Enter key, so you might want to switch to keydown() or keyup() instead.
My test script:
$('.module input').keydown(function (e) {
var keyCode = e.which;
console.log("keydown ("+keyCode+")")
if (keyCode == 13) {
console.log("enter");
return false;
}
});
$('.module input').keyup(function (e) {
var keyCode = e.which;
console.log("keyup ("+keyCode+")")
if (keyCode == 13) {
console.log("enter");
return false;
}
});
$('.module input').keypress(function (e) {
var keyCode = e.which;
console.log("keypress ("+keyCode+")");
if (keyCode == 13) {
console.log("Enter");
return false;
}
});
The output in the console when typing "A Enter B" on the keyboard:
keydown (65)
keypress (97)
keyup (65)
keydown (13)
enter
keyup (13)
enter
keydown (66)
keypress (98)
keyup (66)
You see in the second sequence the 'keypress' is missing, but keydown and keyup register code '13' as being pressed/released.
As per jQuery documentation on the function keypress():
Note: as the keypress event isn't covered by any official specification, the actual behavior encountered when using it may differ across browsers, browser versions, and platforms.
