I want to check whether the entered value in a textbox is an integer or double value. How can I check this?

The value entered into a text box is always a string. Are you asking how to convert this string into int or double values?

Actually I want to use keyPress function.

If user presses any thing other than 0-9 and decimal point (.) it will show an alert box telling "You can only enter numbers".

How can I achieve this?

That is a client-side activity that you must use Javascript for.

Moved to the HTML/Javascript forum.
