Enter key event issues in IE8 to IE10
Gabriel Zhang June 5, 2014
When I implemented the Enter Key event for input element, I found some strange things happend in IE8 to IE10.
These browser's input element cannot reponse Enter Key event, moreover, when you click Enter in the <input>
field, it will click the <button>
element in your page automatically.
How can we solve this problem, there are two ways:
- Wrap all the
<input>
elements in the<form>
, and all the<form>
should have a submit button. - You can add
type="button"
to the<button>
element, this way will override the defaulttype="submit"
and prevent IE from clicking the<button>
on Enter Key event.
