How to change to next form stage on enter

Created by Phil Kurth, Modified on Tue, 15 Aug, 2023 at 7:52 AM by Phil Kurth

By default, hitting the enter key submits a form. If you need to modify this behaviour when using a multistage form, you may use the following snippet as a boilerplate.


jQuery(function($) {
  
  // Add your form key here
  const formKey = 'form_62d743d9eca45';
  
  $('.af-form input').on('keydown', function(e) {
    if (e.originalEvent.key === 'Enter') {
      e.preventDefault(); // Preventing the default action
      if (af.forms[formKey] && af.forms[formKey].$next_button) {
        af.forms[formKey].$next_button.click();
      }
      return false;
    }
  });
});
