I adapted this solution into my script. The idea is to prevent the user from typing unauthorized characters (of course there is also a filter on the back end).
$('#someinput').keyup(function() {
var $th = $(this);
$th.val( $th.val().replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/g, function(str) {
console.log(str);
return '';
}))
})
It works nice, but I also need the users to be able to type specific allowed characters like: .,!?ñáéíóú - I mean, the basic a-zA-Z0-9 plus some basic chars and the whole bunch of special language characters.
What actually needs to be left out are: @#$%^&*()=_+"':;/<>\\|{}[]
Any ideas? Thanks!
Solution thanks to Michael
//query
$('#someinput').keyup(function() {
var $th = $(this);
$th.val($th.val().replace(/[@#$%\^&*()=_+"':;\/<>\\\|{}\[\]]/g,function(str){return '';}));
}).bind('paste',function(e) {
setTimeout(function() {
$('#someinput').val($('#someinput').val().replace(/[@#$%\^&*()=_+"':;\/<>\\\|{}\[\]]/g,function(str){return '';}));
$('#someinput').val($('#someinput').val().replace(/\s+/g,' '));
},100);
});
Invert your regular expression to only replace the specific characters you want omitted:
$th.val( $th.val().replace(/\s?[@#$%\^&*()=_+"':;\/<>\\\|{}\[\]]/g, ""));
// Edit: added optional \s to replace spaces after special chars
Note, a few of them need to be escaped with a backslash inside a []
character class: \\\\\\[\\]\\^\\/
If I'm understanding what you are wanting to do, can't you just add those unwanted characters to your regex instead of doing the [^a-zA-Z0-9]
?
Replace that with [@#\\$%\\^&\\*\\(\\)=_\\+"':;\\/<>\\\\\\|\\{\\}\\[\\]]
(notice the escaping)
