Question

I tried this one but not working. is there any way

Answer 1

Try this one. It works for me.

$("#testid").keypress(function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
}).keydown(function(e){
    if ( e.keyCode === 8 || e.keyCode === 46 ) {
        return false;
    }
});

Answer 2

hello I have a working code but i think this is not the best way. I merged the answer from

How to disable backspace if anything other than input field is focused on using jquery

and the answer of TuomasK

here is the working code.

http://jsfiddle.net/vta96mp1/1/

HTML

<input class='testInput' id ='testid' value = '1' name='testname' type='number' min ='1'>

JS

$("#testid").keypress(function (evt) {
evt.preventDefault();
});

$(document).keydown(function(e) {
    var elid = $(document.activeElement).hasClass('textInput');
   console.log(e.keyCode + ' && ' + elid);
    //prevent both backspace and delete keys
    if ((e.keyCode === 8 || e.keyCode === 46) && !elid) {
        return false;
    };
});

This is from Disable writing in input type number HTML5, but it requires jQuery.

$("[type='number']").keypress(function (evt) {
    evt.preventDefault();
});

Without jQuery code is: (input is an input field)

input.onkeypress=function(evt){
    evt.preventDefault();
};
