HTML5 Number Input - Always show 2 decimal places

Question

Is there\'s any way to format an input[type=\'number\'] value to always show 2 decimal places?

Example: I want to see 0.00 instead of

Answer 1

This is the correct answer:

<input type="number" step="0.01" min="-9999999999.99" max="9999999999.99"/>

Answer 2

Using the step attribute will enable it. It not only determines how much it's supposed to cycle, but the allowable numbers, as well. Using step="0.01" should do the trick but this may depend on how the browser adheres to the standard.

<input type='number' step='0.01' value='5.00'>

Answer 3

The top answer gave me the solution but I didn't like that the user input was changed immediately so I added delay which in my opinion contributes to a better user experience

var delayTimer;
function input(ele) {
    clearTimeout(delayTimer);
    delayTimer = setTimeout(function() {
       ele.value = parseFloat(ele.value).toFixed(2).toString();
    }, 800); 
}

<input type='number' oninput='input(this)'>

If you landed here just wondering how to limit to 2 decimal places I have a native javascript solution:

Javascript:

function limitDecimalPlaces(e, count) {
  if (e.target.value.indexOf('.') == -1) { return; }
  if ((e.target.value.length - e.target.value.indexOf('.')) > count) {
    e.target.value = parseFloat(e.target.value).toFixed(count);
  }
}

HTML:

<input type="number" oninput="limitDecimalPlaces(event, 2)" />

Note that this cannot AFAIK, defend against this chrome bug with the number input.

Answer 5

This works to enforce a max of 2 decimal places without automatically rounding to 2 places if the user isn't finished typing.

function naturalRound(e) {

   let dec = e.target.value.indexOf(".")
   let tooLong = e.target.value.length > dec + 3
   let invalidNum = isNaN(parseFloat(e.target.value))

   if ((dec >= 0 && tooLong) || invalidNum) {
     e.target.value = e.target.value.slice(0, -1)
   }
}

import { Component, Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';

@Pipe({
    name: 'replace'
})

export class ReplacePipe implements PipeTransform {
    transform(value: any): any {
        value = String(value).toString();
        var afterPoint = '';
        var plus = ',00';
        if (value.length >= 4) {
            if (value.indexOf('.') > 0) {
                afterPoint = value.substring(value.indexOf('.'), value.length);
                var te = afterPoint.substring(0, 3);
                if (te.length == 2) {
                    te = te + '0';
                }
            }
            if (value.indexOf('.') > 0) {
                if (value.indexOf('-') == 0) {
                    value = parseInt(value);
                    if (value == 0) {
                        value = '-' + value + te;
                        value = value.toString();
                    }
                    else {
                        value = value + te;
                        value = value.toString();
                    }
                }
                else {
                    value = parseInt(value);
                    value = value + te;
                    value = value.toString();
                }
            }
            else {
                value = value.toString() + plus;
            }
            var lastTwo = value.substring(value.length - 2);
            var otherNumbers = value.substring(0, value.length - 3);
            if (otherNumbers != '')
                lastTwo = ',' + lastTwo;
            let newValue = otherNumbers.replace(/\B(?=(\d{3})+(?!\d))/g, ".") + lastTwo;
            parseFloat(newValue);
            return `${newValue}`;
        }
}
