If you want to prevent a form from submitting, you would probably need
to bind a "submit" event on the form tag, with evt-preventdefault. That
would be, imo, equivalent to your current javascript fix.
We have not noticed so far what you point out, and have probably never
used this event. However, when we implemented the inline editing, we
noticed that browsers behave unexpectedly with the keypress/down/up event
and Enter in the submit field. In some cases preventing the form submit
was rather tricky. This is not because of kss itself but because of
browser madness: once we have a good pattern that works in javascript, we
can improve support for it in kss as well.
So first of all it would be great if you could look at the
"preventdefault" demo in kss.demo. It would be interesting to see if what
you see is in line with your experience. It is especially interesting to
run this demo on Safari.
Then, it would be great if you could create another demo that presents
the solution for your current problem. You could also extend the
"form_submit" demo if you like since it already has the html. This way
the solution you work out could be presented publicly, and we could also
test that it works on all browsers.
If you could help with this, it would be great. Please let me know on irc
if you need any help.
