Question

Does anybody know how to change an entered symbol seamlessly with javascript? Because when I just replace an already-printed symbol with the desired one (something like onkeyup=”this.value=this.value.replace(/,/g,’.’)”), the user sees the replacement occur: you press comma, comma is printed, then it’s replaced by a dot. Of course, it happens quickly so it’s not a big problem, but anyway I want the dot to be printed immediately without printing and replacing the comma first. Is it possible?
