Qwerty/Numeric Virtual Keyboard Plugin - jQuery onscreenKeyboard.js

A small jQuery plugin for creating a minimal, clean on-screen virtual keyboard that supports either 'qwerty' or 'numeric' layout.

How to use it:

1. Include the necessary jQuery library on the webpage.

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.slim.min.js" 
        integrity="sha384-q8i/X+965DzO0rT7abK41JStQIAqVgRVzpbzo5smXKp4YfRvH+8abtTE1Pi6jizo" 
        crossorigin="anonymous">
</script>

2. Include the jQuery caret plugin to manipulate the caret position and selection range of input and textarea elements.

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/caret/1.0.0/jquery.caret.min.js"></script>

3. Include the jQuery onscreenKeyboard.js plugin's files.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="jquery.onscreenKeyboard.css">
<script src="jquery.onscreenKeyboard.js"></script>

4. Create a container element for the on-screen virtual keyboard.

<div class="onscreenKeyboard"></div>

5. Append the on-screen virtual keyboard to a text field you specify.

<input type="text" class="example">
$(document).ready(function(){
  $('.onscreenKeyboard').onscreenKeyboard({
    // default: 'onscreenKeyboardTarget'
    allowTypingClass: 'example'
  });
});

6. Customize the keyboard type. This can be either 'qwerty' (default) or 'numeric'

$(document).ready(function(){
  $('.onscreenKeyboard').onscreenKeyboard({
    allowTypingClass: 'example',
    type: 'numeric'
  });
});

7. Force the keyboard to the 'caps' mode on init.

$(document).ready(function(){
  $('.onscreenKeyboard').onscreenKeyboard({
    allowTypingClass: 'example',
    caps: false // default: true
  });
});
