  • yes I am using event.keycode for backspace its 8. $(document).on("keydown", function (e) { //console.log(e.srcElement.type); if (e.which === 8 && !$(e.target).is("input:not([readonly]):not([type=radio]):not([type=checkbox]), textarea, [contentEditable], [contentEditable=true]")) { e.preventDefault(); } }); – Anand Jul 30 '15 at 13:53
