I have written a JS function that only allow numbers to be entered. A copy of that function is below:
function NumbersOnly(e) {
var evt = e || window.event;
if (evt) {
var keyCode = evt.charCode || evt.keyCode;
//Allow tab, backspace and numbers to be pressed, otherwise return false for everything.
//(keyCode>=96 && keyCode<=105) are the numpad numbers
if ((keyCode >= 48 && keyCode <= 57) || (keyCode >= 96 && keyCode <= 105) || keyCode === 9 || keyCode === 8) {
}
else {
evt.returnValue = false;
}
}
}
This function works fine with all the numbers but my problem happens when the shift key is held down and one of the number keys is pressed. The value returned is one of the characters above the numbers. So for example if I hold down shift and press 7, '&' is returned but the keyCode is still 55!! I would have expected that to be different.
So my question is how do I check if the shift key is being held down. I've tried the following check but this didn't work:
if (keyCode === 16) {
evt.returnValue = false;
}
else {
if ((keyCode >= 48 && keyCode <= 57) || (keyCode >= 96 && keyCode <= 105) || keyCode === 9 || keyCode === 8) {
}
else {
evt.returnValue = false;
}
}
I'm using ASP.NET 4.0.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance.
