Answer 1

The following will do what you are looking for.

$('#emails, #skills').keypress(function(e){
   if( e.keyCode == $.keyCode.ENTER || e.keyCode == $.keyCode.NUMPAD_ENTER ){
     yourSubroutine();
   }
});

Answer 2

$('#name, #last').bind('keydown', function(e) {
                    if (e.keyCode == 13 || e.keyCode == 108) {
                        doit();
                    }
                });

Check out this question. Essentially, you'll want to bind a keypress listener, and then check for the return key.
