How can the issue of form submission not being triggered by the Enter key be resolved in PHP scripts?

Issue: The form submission may not be triggered by the Enter key in PHP scripts if the form does not have a submit button or if JavaScript is not used to handle the form submission. To resolve this issue, you can include a hidden submit button in the form and use JavaScript to trigger the form submission when the Enter key is pressed. PHP Code Snippet: 

<form id="myForm" method="post" action="submit.php">
    <input type="text" name="inputField">
    <input type="hidden" name="hiddenSubmit" id="hiddenSubmit">
</form>

<script>
    document.getElementById("myForm").onkeypress = function(e) {
        if (e.keyCode == 13) {
            document.getElementById("hiddenSubmit").click();
        }
    };
</script>
