Question

I have a simple input tag in html where users type their names.
How can i make that input not to accept specific words? I am not fan of regex
and i will prefer something more readable if it is possible. Simple javascript or jquery are welcome.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You can achieve this by using javascript’s string.indexOf function.

Here is an example

You can extend on this by having an array of disallowed words.
