There is no way to leave out just 1 symbol – T-Rex Feb 22 '21 at 22:50

Yes, there is, and you're wanting to leave out two *symbols*. Read those answers again. There are many of them. – Ken White Feb 22 '21 at 22:51

I see at least 15 different answers to the question I linked that could easily be modified to do what you're asking. Apparently, you didn't read enough of them. – Ken White Feb 22 '21 at 23:05

I tried alot of them and I don't have jquery so most of them don't work i tried messageInput.value.replace(">", "") but it did not work – T-Rex Feb 22 '21 at 23:59

There are many answers that are plain Javascript that don't need jquery. Do you know any Javascript at all? – Ken White Feb 23 '21 at 00:00

I do know javascript and when i do any of them it takes the < and the > away but if i do or other tags the tags still show up so I am looking to make it so you can not type the < or the > in the textbox – T-Rex Feb 23 '21 at 00:42
