For this, use onkeypress. Let’s first create input text −
<input id="textBox" type="text" onkeypress="return demoForEnterKey(event)"/>
Now, let’s see the demoForEnterKey() function and check whether enter key is pressed or not −
function demoForEnterKey(eventName) {
if (eventName.keyCode == 13) {
var t = document.getElementById("textBox");
console.log(t.value);
console.log("Enter key is pressed.....")
return true;
} else {
console.log("Enter key is not pressed.....")
return false;
}
