<form action="" name="searchForm" id="searchForm" method="post">

How can I make it submit using Javascript when user press enter?

edit: assuming I can’t edit the <html>, only using JS (jQuery if really needed)

edit2: it will also be great if myFormProcessFunction() was loaded

accept

Just capture the submit function as if the form had been submitted via the enter button normally.

document.searchForm.submit = function()
{
    myFormProcessFunction()

    return false; // prevents default action
}
