Disabling default Enter key action wurde erstellt von mligrani

Hi guys,
time by time discovering new features of this great extension.
now it comes to default action for "enter" key on the PC keyboard.

it's associated to the "submit" form button, but in our project it should not, in order to prevent uncomplete record submission, when the user presses "Enter" expecting only to go to the next field.

Submit button should be linked for our needs only to the next action after the last field has been populated.
Waiting for (maybe) a more customizable solution, would it be possible simply to disable the association between the Enter key and the submit button?
thank you in advance
regards

Hi,

thanks for your suggestion and your request.

At the moment I can see no simple way to create a customizable solution to disable the association between the Enter key and the submit button. This is mostly due to the fact, that there is already a lot of javascript running in order to validate user inputs properly, to make conditional fields work, to create multi page forms with result page and progress indicator....

But maybe the feature to add a result page to a form, which is part of the multi page form extension , could solve your problem. If you add a result page to a form, as far as I can see, the association is disabled and only a click on a button triggers the buttons event.

Regards,
Aicha

I recommend you the new and up-to-date documentation for Joomla 4:

Most of this also applies retrospectively to Joomla 3.
Please only ask 1 question per topic :-)

Hi Aicha, and thank you once more for your quick answer.
So, a little bad news.. well, I will think to your solution, I'm not sure it's good for us because of some requirements of the project (basically related to the short number of steps required to provide data from the "field" operators, a kind of a quick guided ride through the boxes to fill and a final "submit")
In case I will purchase the extension,
anyway thank you again.

regards

Massimo

Hi Massimo,

maybe this post on stackoverflow can be of help.

You would have to to add a similar piece of javascript code to Visforms (Wrap it in a jQuery(document).ready(); statement and use the proper form id) for example using a template override. Please use jQuery instead of $.
In theory this should work.

Regards,
Aicha

Hi Aicha, and thank you for the suggestion. I also found that tip by myself doin' wide search about this topic.
Is it correct to add that code to the main index.php file in a <script> tag in the <head>section?
moreover, it seems the form does not display correctly on iOS devices (iPhone), in Safari browser. It appears correctly when accessed, but as you tap on any data field, the labels move left, remaining partially hidden to the user. Do you have any suggestion?

Hi,

usually it is o.k. to add the script via script tag in the head section of the main index.php

I think, that there was a post on this forum about a problem with displaying the form on some mobile ios devices, but actually we sadly found no reproducable description of the problem and therefore no solution for this and I have no means to reproduce and test it.

Aicha
