I am trying to prevent the enter key from being put into a textarea, but it doesn't seem to work.

$('#comment').keyup(function(event) {

  if (event.text.charCodeAt() == '10') {

     event.preventDefault();

   }

});

I have written little demonstration on jsfiddle.net, where you can try this code

Everybody has right answer :)

$('#comment').keypress(function (event) {

    if (event.keyCode === 10 || event.keyCode === 13) {

        event.preventDefault();

    }

});
