How to Disable the Return Key for submitting a record? Thanks.

Try to add the code to the head of your DataPage:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function stopRKey(evt) {
	var evt  = (evt) ? evt : ((event) ? event : null);
	var node = (evt.target) ? evt.target : ((evt.srcElement) ? evt.srcElement : null);
	if ((evt.keyCode == 13) && (node.type=="text")) { return false; }
}
document.onkeypress = stopRKey;
</script>

Small addition. If document already has some handler we need keep it and execute. Please look at code bellow.

var prevKeyPress = document.onkeypress;

document.onkeypress = function(e) {
	if(!e) { e = window.event; }
	try { if (prevKeyPress) prevKeyPress(e); } catch (ex) { }
	
        // Do something

}

BTW, it is only for text.

To disable key press in password, checkbox and radio button fields:

if ((evt.keyCode == 13) && ((node.type=="text") || (node.type=="password")|| (node.type=="checkbox")|| (node.type=="radio")))

Hello Everyone, you can also try this code below to not submit data when the enter key is pressed.

<script>

document.addEventListener('BeforeFormSubmit', function(event) {
      event.preventDefault();
});

</script>
