Capture 'Enter' key event

[Former Community Member]

Hi,



Is there any way we can capture the event when a user presses the enter key inside a text field?

Hi andrewquay



you can capture the enter key by adding the following code in the textfield's change event.



if(xfa.event.change == "\u000a")

{

xfa.host.messageBox("enter key is pressed");

}

Hi Ashok,



Thanks for your help. Our problem is that we have a single line text field, so when we press the enter key the change event is not triggered. Any other way around this? Thanks again..

On exit use:




xfa.event.commitKey === 2
