So how do you think the > developer is constrained here? In fact, I wish that the user remains blocked in the input zone. For example, the value of reference is 25 and the user must put a value which is larger than 25. In the onchange event, I test the new value. If he put 13 for example, I'd like him not to leave the input zone (with, moreover, an alert message). In IE, I just write : return false and it is ok ! In Firefox, I sought several solutions (onfocus, onkeypress, etc...) without finding anything... Do you have any solution, any suggestion ? Thank you very much. David.
