I think you are using jquery click event use $("form").submit(function(event) — Manoj, Oct 25 '16 at 10:34

you don't have a submit button try a keypress event & the submit() function

$('body').keypress(function(e){
if (e.keyCode == 13)
{
    $('#loginForm').submit();
}
});

or change

<input type="button" to a type submit

document.onkeydown=function(){
    if(window.event.keyCode=='13'){
        document.form.submit();
    }
}
