I'm using the jQuery Tools Validator which implements HTML5 validations through jQuery. It's been working great so far except for one thing. In the HTML5 specification, the input type "number" can have both integers and floating point numbers. This seems incredibly short-sighted since it will only be a useful validator when your database fields are signed floating point numbers (for unsigned ints you'll have to fall back to "pattern" validation and thus loose extra features like the up and down arrows for browsers that support it). Is there another input type or perhaps an attribute that would restrict the input to just unsigned integers? I couldn't find any, thanks.
EDIT
Ok guys, I appreciate your time and help, but I see many undeserved up-voting going on :D. Setting the step to 1 is not the answer since it doesn't restrict the input. You can still type a negative floating point number into the textbox. Also, I am aware of pattern validation (I mentioned it in my original post), but that was not part of the question. I wanted to know if HTML5 allowed restricting an input of type "number" to positive integer values. To this question the answer, it seems, would be "no, it does not". I didn't want to use pattern validation because this causes some drawbacks when using jQuery Tools validation, but it now seems that the specification doesn't allow for a cleaner way to do this.
Yes, HTML5 does. Try this code (w3school):
See the min and max paremeter? I tried it using Chrome 19 (worked) and Firefox 12 (did not work).

The best you can achieve with HTML only
This is not only for html5 all browser is working fine . try this
Just putting it in your input field :
onkeypress='return event.charCode >= 48 && event.charCode <= 57'
Pattern are always preferable for restriction, try
oninput
andmin
occur 1 for inputting only numbers from 1 onwardsSet
step="any"
. Works fine. Reference :http://blog.isotoma.com/2012/03/html5-input-typenumber-and-decimalsfloats-in-chrome/
