Edit working on Firefox, only Chrome bug (and maybe others)
I try to get all event from a simple <input type="number" step="any" />
:
$('input[type=number]').on('input', function() {
$('#value').text($(this).val())
})
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="number" step="any"/>
<br/>
<strong>Value:</strong> <span id="value"></span>
All append good when I press, or update the number. But when I try to put a decimal point .
the value is null
.
I use jQuery here, but the problem is the same with Vanilla JS.
i think it is issue with type
of input
field, decimal point
(the dot) is not a number but it is necessary for numbers, so i guess it is the glitch in the matrix.
here is a fiddle where type is text and it is working fine.
The closest I can get is:
$('input[type=number]').on('input', function() {
$(this).select();
var value = window.getSelection().toString();
window.getSelection().empty();
$('#value').text(value);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="number" step="any"/>
<br/>
<strong>Value:</strong> <span id="value"></span>
Notice that when you type something, the field loses its focus...
