I create a textarea and javascript code that removes the text in the textarea on press enter my problem is that when press enter it break a line, but I want to prevent the line break. this is my code for removing text from textarea on press enter:

if(e.keyCode == 13 && !e.shiftKey){
function clear() {
$("#mytxt :input").each(  function() {
    $(this) .val('');
    });
}
}
<textarea id="mytxt"></textarea>

so how can I prevent the line break while using my function?

Thanks

Add e.preventDefault(); to the end of your function.
