Unfocus an input of a form after pressing enter

I have an input field and I want to disable automatic submit and unfocus the field after pressing Enter.

Code

<input type="search" id="keyword" placeholder="Search..." name="keyword"
       onkeydown="if(event.keyCode==13){return false; $('#keyword').blur();}"
       autocomplete="off" />

The form does not get submitted nor unfocused.

Thanks in advance!

You are returning from function before blur is triggered. You need to call blur first, and then return from function. Please see corrected snippet:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="search" id="keyword" placeholder="Search..." name="keyword" onkeydown="if(event.keyCode==13){ $('#keyword').blur(); return false;}" autocomplete="off">
