This is a polyfill for implementing the HTML5 <input type="number"> element in browsers that do not currently support it.
Using it is easy — simply include the number-polyfill.js file in the HEAD of the HTML page.
You can then use <input type="number"> elements normally.
If the script detects that the browser doesn't support <input type="number">, it will search for these elements and attach some Javascript to them to make them function as number-only input fields, and add increment/decrement buttons.
A default CSS file is provided. You may edit this file to style the buttons to make them look the way you want.
The script can also be called manually as a jQuery plugin for elements dynamically generated through script. Simply call the .inputNumber() method on any jQuery object containing one or more <input type="number"> elements.
This script requires jQuery.
