Question

I have an MVC2 project that has a page on it that is supposed to call a jquery function. When you click on the button via the mouse my jquery function is called. I of course have a .click() function call on my button ID. My guess is that I am simply performing a form submit when I press enter instead of going through the click motion. Is there a way that I can either have the enter button do the same thing as the .click() or at least use jquery or anything as a matter of fact to disable the enter button so that a user can not hit enter and will have to press via the mouse?

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. In the meantime, I will continue to scour the internet to figure out what I can do for this.

thanks.

I would think that you should be able to just hook into the forms submit event:

$('#myForm').submit(function() {
...
});

Using this should handle either the button click or an enter key press.
