Replace dot and comma while typing and Replace in Inputfield

I would like to disallow the user to type comma or dot while typing in the input field of the type number.

I have already searched and found solution, but it does not work.

If I type e.g. point, no matter which of the two solutions below, the input field is cleared.

This is my input field

<input type="number" class="form-control numbersOnly" name="angebot" id="angebot" min="1" step="1"  placeholder="<?php the_field('language_shop_detail_button_counter_offer_placeholder', 'option'); ?>">

Those are the 2 approaches that don’t work.

jQuery('.numbersOnly').keyup(function () { 
    this.value = this.value.replace(/[^0-9.]/g,'');
});

and

$('.angebotAbgebenContainer #angebot').keyup(function(event) {

    var current = $(".angebotAbgebenContainer #angebot").val();
    console.log("current", current);
    
    
    var replaced = current.replace(/./g, "");
    console.log("replaced", replaced);
    
    //replaced = parseInt(replaced);
    
   // $('.angebotAbgebenContainer #angebot').val(replaced);
    
 
});

Those are the 2 approaches that don’t work. As soon as I make a point, in both approaches, the input field is cleared.

But what I want is, if someone tries to type a point or a comma, it doesn’t appear and if someone copy pastes a number, the comma and point must also be gone.

Answer

This works for me

Note it is type text

$('#angebot').on("input",function(event) {
  var current = $(this).val();
  console.log("current", current);
  var replaced = current.replace(/[D.,]/g, "");
  console.log("replaced", replaced);
  $(this).val(replaced);
});

<input type="text" id="angebot" />
