Re: field value AFTER numeric validation

[sylver]

The focus goes to the field again, and the field value now is 12q.
But I want the field value turns 12. That is, without the last non-
numeric key value pressed. Am I clear enough?

To convert "12q" to "12":
var text = "12q";
var twelve = parseInt(text);
//twelve == 12

or you can user parseFloat()..d epends on your needs :D

And what would you expect from "09q" ?

It's a good idea to read the newsgroup c.l.j and its FAQ. See below.

Indeed, but just as important is,
that '12p' could easily have ment 120,
and this would be accepted as 12 without informing the user.

I think parseInt() should not be used for parsing user input.

Re: field value AFTER numeric validation

Thanks for all the help. You all were very helpful.

I forgot to say that I was working only for IE (it's an intranet,
using sharepoint too)

Dr.
I put "12p" as an example. I'd expect you understand it's just that.
What do you need? Something like xxxxz (x representing a number, z any
other key)?
Come on, doc.

And what would you expect from "09q" ?
