Only numbers as keyboard input for ipad

Question

I have to display a number pad as keyboard for a textfield (it can take only numerals) in case of ipad.setting keyboard type as UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad displays numeric keyboard but user can switch back to alphabets.Is there any keyboard for ipad that just displays numbers?

Answer 1

Use the input type "number"

<input type="number" />

or failing that use a validation pattern which only accepts numbers.

<input type="text" pattern="[0-9]*" />

Both of these should bring up the num pad on iPhones and bring up the iPad keyboard with the numbers exposed (amongst the other keys)

Answer 2

You would have to create your own keyboard to accomplish this.
