Hello Payam,

In the following example I check that whether the entered key is a number or not and that it is greater than 0. If it is not the key
is rejected and nothing appears in the text area.

function Salam(myKey){
 varQty = myKey.value;
 if ((varQty < 1) || (isNaN(varQty))){
 alert("Please enter a valid number!") ;
 return false;
 }else{
 return true;
 }
}

I hope it helps.

Majid Qazi
