I just want to detect the enter input keypress on my android device. I found out that using jquery, we can do like below:
$('#inputText').keypress(function(event) {
var keycode = event.keyCode || event.which;
if(keycode == '13') {
alert('You pressed a "enter" key in somewhere');
}
});
But I don't want to use jquery. I want to use the traditional way like using
document.getElementById('inputText')
But I don't know how to add in the keypress event function. Do you guys have any idea?
Almost the same as in jQuery. Use eventListener and pass an argument e to the function to catch the event and it's keyCode.
var elem = document.getElementById('inputText');
elem.addEventListener('keypress', function(e){
if (e.keyCode == 13) {
console.log('You pressed a "enter" key in somewhere');
}
});<input id='inputText'>document.getElementById("id").onKeyDown = function(event) {
if (event.keycode === 13) {
alert("return pressed");
}
};
Use event.key instead of event.keyCode!
const node = document.getElementById('inputText');
node.addEventListener('keydown', function onEvent(event) {
if (event.key === "Enter") {
// Do something
}
});
