It's been my experience that listening for keycodes in js can be a bit
hairy. If you have a bunch of inputs, it's probably semantic to wrap them in
a form (the div too if you like), then you could take advantage of the on
built-in event listener but just prevent the actual form submission:
$('#myForm').submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
doSomething();
});
