Number Restriction after decimal point in javascript

How to restrict the number of digits after the decimal point using "onkeyup" even in javascript?

I want to restrict the number of digits after the decimal point based on an input already given in the page. if i give the input as 3 then the digits after the decimal points should be only 3. for this i need to use javascript so that at runtime itself output is shown to user and the user should not be able to enter more than 3.

The objectvalue is the current inputtext object where value is entered. id is the object value of the field where precision(no of digits after decimal) is entered.

function decimalRestriction(objectValue,id) { var precision=document.getElementById(id).value; var value=objectValue.value; if(value.match('.')) { var decimaldigits=value.split('.'); if(decimaldigits[1].length > precision) objectValue.value= decimaldigits[0]+ '.' + decimaldigits[1].substring(0, precision); } }

Try this:

your_number = (your_number).toFixed(3);

You can use the toFixed method:

var withDecimals = (1*value).toFixed(numberOfDecimals);

Multiplying by 1 makes sure that we are dealing with a number and not some other object, like a string.

You can use toFixed(Your number) for that
