How to disable auto new line in verilog mode in emacs

Each time I want to post my question it always show the problem “Your post appears to contain code that is not properly formatted”, why this happens. I can only post my question as code. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I am fairly new to emacs.
Whenever I type a semicolon( ; ) in my verilog code, it puts a
"new line" character automatically. How to disable this
automatic entry of new-line character?

I searched this question on google. Somebody answered 

"Hi Ravi,
        I am not sure which "mode file" you are using. If you are using the
one from Mac (Verisity) then have a llok at the file "verilog-mode.el"
You will see
;       verilog-auto-newline             t
;       verilog-auto-indent-on-newline   t
(defcustom verilog-auto-newline t
"t" means true, change it to "nil" and restart Emacs.
Another way to do through GUI is
On the menu bar you normally see a "special" pull down menu (if Verilog mode
is loaded) named "Verilog".
1.> Click on the Pull Down Menu Verilog
2.> Click on "Custmoize Verilog Mode..." (should be last but one option in
this menu)
3.> Then "open" the INDENT group
4.> Look for an option named "auto new line" and set this to nil.
5.> Save options..
Hope this helps.
Good Luck,
Srini

"

I modified my verilog-mode.el in ~/elisp, but it did not work.
Auto new line still happens. 
And I can't find a verilog mode menu bar on emacs menu bar. 
Can somebody tell me how to show the verilog mode menu bar on my emacs? Many thanks.

My .emacs has this:

(defun my-verilog-hook ()
   ;; the (setq verilog-auto-indent-on-newline nil) below wasn't
   ;; stopping the auto indentation, but this does:
   (define-key verilog-mode-map "\r" nil))
(add-hook 'verilog-mode-hook 'my-verilog-hook)

And that seems to have fixed it for me.

Try to add

(setq verilog-auto-newline nil)

in your ~/.emacs file?
