Reset to default 5You can use the keycodes to detect which key was pressed. I have an example here:
jsFiddle
HTML
<form>
<fieldset>
<label for="target">Type Something:</label>
<input id="target" type="text" />
</fieldset>
</form>
JavaScript
$("#target").on("keypress", function(event){
if (event.keyCode === 13) {
alert("The enter key was pressed");
event.preventDefault();
}
});
This is how I did it in my mobile app but was not with phonegap so not positive it will work, But worth a try.
$('#target').submit(function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
alert(event.which);
}
