If it Possible to allow specific string in input box in keyPress event in same order.Important thing is i need to allow only in the same order.
Example:If I need to allow "NILL" user must enter in the same order.If user enter "NL" then we need to restrict them.If it possible.
I've tried the following:
$("input").keypress(function(e) {
var chr = chr = e.key;
if ("NILL".indexOf(chr) < 0 && e.which != 13)
return false;
console.log('allowed');
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="text" name="foo" />
You can transform the string into an array of chars then check each index if it matches the key entered
$(document).ready(function(){
var restriction = "NILL";
restriction = restriction.split(''); // transform to array of char
$("input").keypress(function(e) {
var chr = e.key.toUpperCase();
if(restriction[$(this).val().length] != chr){
return false;
}
});
});

<input type="text" name="foo" />
