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?
Answer
$('.input').keypress(function (e) {
if (e.which == 13) {
$('form#login').submit();
return false; //<---- Add this line
}
});
Check out this stackoverflow answer:
event.preventDefault() vs. return false
Essentially, "return false" is the same as calling e.preventDefault
and e.stopPropagation()
.
