Disable form submission on pressing enter because i am using Ajax functionality


How are you calling your Ajax function? It should be inside the submit event handler of the form. And then if you have the event handler return false it won't submit normally:

<form onsubmit="doAjaxSubmit(); return false;">  ...</form>


You can detect which key is pressed using the .keypress() method. From this you should be able to return false; for form submit and do your ajax stuff on the back of it in an if statement:

You can have your form's onSubmit return true if all the fields have values, or false if they don't.
