How to allow only numeric (0-9) in HTML inputbox using jQuery?

Question

I am creating a web page where I have an input text field in which I want to allow only numeric characters like (0,1,2,3,4,5...9) 0-9.

How can I do this using jQuery

Short and sweet - even if this will never find much attention after 30+ answers ;)

  $('#number_only').bind('keyup paste', function(){
        this.value = this.value.replace(/[^0-9]/g, '');
  });
