Assuming that you have a TextBox which should allow the user to enter only Alphabets and numerics. If a NonAlphanumeric character is entered the javascript method should replace it with an empty string.


<asp:TextBox ID="txtBackendKey" onkeyup="return IsalphaNumericValidate(this)" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>



Below is the Javascript method to allow only Alphanumeric characters.



//Accept only Alphanumeric value in Backend Key field.
function IsalphaNumericValidate(alphanumericChar) {
var txtBackend = document.getElementById("<%=txtBackendKey.ClientID %>");
var value = txtBackend.value;
var m_strOut = new String(value);
txtBackend.value = m_strOut.replace(/[^A-Za-z0-9]/g, '');
return m_sOut;
