I'm trying to create a little search box that allows you to search Twitter based on the keyword you enter in the input field. While it'
s work, it only works if you press the Submit button. I would also like to be able to press the Enter or Return key to initiate the search. I've tried using the .sumbit function and wrapping my input around a form element with no success. Any insight would be greatly appreciate!

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
function(data) {
$('#startSearch').click(function(){
$('#tweets .results').remove();
var searchTerm = 'http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=' + $('#twitterSearch').val() + '&callback=?'
$.getJSON(searchTerm, function(data) {
$.each(data.results, function() {
$('<div class="results"></div>')
.hide()
.append('<a class="userPicLink" href="http://twitter.com/' + this.from_user + '">' + '<img class="userImg" src="' + this.profile_image_url + '">' + '</a>')
.append('<span class="userName">' + '<a href="http://twitter.com/' + this.from_user + '">' + this.from_user + '</span>')
.append('<span class="userText">' + this.text + '</span>')
.append('<time class="textTime">' + relTime(this.created_at) + '</time>')
.appendTo('#tweets')
.fadeIn();
});
});
</script>
<body>
<label id="searchLabel" for="twitterSearch">Search</label>
