This code won't catch the alternate values on the numeric keys. For example, #, ! and @ will all be allowed as the key pressed for these is still the number key.

I changed the code to account for this as follows:

$('input.valid-number').bind('keypress', function(e) { return (e.which === 8 || e.which === 0 || (e.shiftKey === false && (e.which > 47 && e.which < 58))) ? true : false; }

Forgive the lack of formatting, this was my first post and I'm not used to Markdown.

$('input.valid-number').bind('keypress', function(e) {   
    return (e.which === 8 || e.which === 0 || (e.shiftKey === false && (e.which > 47 && e.which < 58))) ? true : false;   
}
