Question

JQuery - prevent form submitting on enter button with out prevent the keystroke

$('.filters').keypress(function(event)
{
    if(event.keyCode === 13) 
    {
            $.fn.yiiGridView.update('lead-category-grid', {
                   data: $(this).serialize()
            });
       return false;
    }
});

since this function will prevent the enter keystroke. but i need some function to execute but form should not submitted

you can execute the whatever you want in the condition – Ibu Jul 23 '12 at 19:03 — Ibu, Jul 23 '12 at 19:03

i did try using function before `return false;`. but i didn't get answer the problem is with yii framework. from here http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/index.php?/topic/22996-avoiding-form-submission-on-enter-in-a-cgridview-filter-field/ i got patch and updated framework now its working. anyway `@ibu` thanks for your time. – 22francis Jul 23 '12 at 20:15
