Enter key event handling

----- New Jquery for answer from comment ----- 

function search2() {
    var urlString = 'Controls/LookUp.aspx?zipcode=' + $('#MultiSearch2').val();

    window.location = urlString;
    return false;
}

jQuery('#MultiSearch2').bind("keypress", function (e) {

    if (e.keyCode == 13) {
        e.preventDefault();
        search2();
    }
});

Ok, here is how everything is kind of set up.

I have a main.master page that has the following code in it. 

<asp:Panel ID="PanelMainMaster" runat="server" DefaultButton="searchBTN">
    <div id="HomeQuickSearch">
        <input id="multiSearchStyle" type="text" placeholder ="search our store" />
        <asp:Button OnClientClick="return searchZone()" runat="server" Text="Go" ID="searchBTN" />     
    </div>
</asp:Panel>

I have another master page (tree) with the following code in it: 

<asp:Panel ID="Panel2" runat="server" DefaultButton="submit">
    <form name="ZipCodeForm" action="/Search.cfm" method="get">
        <div style="margin-bottom: .25em">Search for a tree:</div>
        <input type="text" name="MultiSearch" id="MultiSearch" size="15" maxlength="50" style="margin-bottom: .25em">
        <asp:Button Text="Search" runat="server" ID="submit" OnClientClick="return search()" />
    </form>
</asp:Panel>

And then, there is a custom content page created through a third party that shows up within the second master page with this code: 

<div id="TreeStyle">
    <Z:CustomMessage ID="Tree1" MessageKey="TreeHero" runat="server" />
</div>

The HTML rendered from the custom message:

<input id="MultiSearch2" type="text" name="MultiSearch2" maxlength="50">
<button id="submit2" name="submit2" type="submit">Search</button>

The page is rendered in following flow:

  1. Main.Master
  2. Tree.Master
  3. Custom Message within Tree.Master

The first two input textboxes handle the Enter button event click with the DefaultButton option on the asp:Panel. However, there is a third textbox and search button that is created because of the custom message within the Tree.Master and that CANNOT have any ASP in it, only HTML.

My question is, how can I handle this Enter keypress event and have it search with the value from the third textbox instead of the value from the frist or second.

I have tried this, but it didn't work. Not too much surprise there though. 

function search2() {
    var urlString = 'Controls/LookUp.aspx?zipcode=' + $('#MultiSearch2').val();

    window.location = urlString;
    return false;
}

jQuery('#MultiSearch2').on("keypress", function (e) {
    if (e.keyCode == 13) {
        search2();
    }
});

I am also getting a jquery error I wasn't noticing before: object [object Object] has no method 'on'

You can do this:

jQuery('#MultiSearch2').on("keypress", function (e) {            

    if (e.keyCode == 13) {

        // Cancel the default action on keypress event
        e.preventDefault(); 

        search2();
    }
});
