Enable Enter Key On Numeric Keyboard In Phonegap

We are running PhoneGap 2.6 on Android 3.22 (also jquery mobile and backbone are also in the mix). We want to make it so the user can tap the enter key to submit a form after enter

Solution 1:

Not sure if this relates to your problem... but you can simulate form submit similar to what happens when you click on 'Go' via a press via the 'Next' button on a numeric keyboard. You can detect the next keyboard press by using the following bind in JQuery:

$('input').on('keydown', function(e){
    if(e.which === 9) {
        //your code here
    }
});

The 'next' button emulates the tab keypress event on a keyboard, which is key code 9. Unfortunately, keypress and keyup events do not detect the next key event, so you need to bind it on keydown.
