I'm trying to prevent the use of the enter key inside inputs fields. I managed to do it for the backspace key so that my window does not close but it doesn't seem to work with the enter key. Why? Could it be because I unbind the keydown function?
$(document).unbind('keydown').bind('keydown', this.keyPress);
keyPress: function (event)
{
var doPrevent = false;
var d = event.srcElement || event.target;
if ((d.tagName.toUpperCase() === 'INPUT' &&
(d.type.toUpperCase() === 'TEXT' ||
d.type.toUpperCase() === 'PASSWORD' ||
d.type.toUpperCase() === 'FILE' ||
d.type.toUpperCase() === 'EMAIL' ||
d.type.toUpperCase() === 'SEARCH' ||
d.type.toUpperCase() === 'DATE'))
|| d.tagName.toUpperCase() === 'TEXTAREA') {
if (event.keyCode === 8)
doPrevent = d.readOnly || d.disabled;
else if (event.keyCode == 13)
doPrevent = true;
}
else
doPrevent = true;
if (doPrevent)
event.preventDefault();
},
Nevermind, the code is working. If my window is still closing, it's because the enter key is connected to a different function, located in the backbone.modal.js
Thanks!
