Execute function when enter is pressed if textbox has focus

Is it possible to execute a function by pressing the enter key on the keyboard only if a certain textbox has focus. i.e. if any other textbox has focus or no textbox has focus, the enter key should do nothing.

Enter any thing in Text box then press Enter to execute

 <form onSubmit='alerttest(this); return false'>        
     <input type="text">         
 </form>


 <script language="javascript">
   function alerttest()
    {
        alert("Executing jolly.exe !!!!");
        // function edited by Inderpreet singh
    }
</script>

$(function(){
     $("#textarea").keyup(function(e){
          if (e.keyCode === 13) {
               //do stuff
          }
     });

});

$('#myTextbox').bind('keyup', function(e) {

    if ( e.keyCode === 13 ) { // 13 is enter key

        // Execute code here.

    }

});
