If you want to do this to prevent the input from breaking a server-side
script, then you mustn't use javascript. Validate the input on the
server side instead. Otherwise, people without javascript will still
enter the invalid characters and your server-side code will break.

If that's not the case, you can use something like this:

<input type="text" onkeyup="this.v alue=this.value .replace(/\'/g, '')" />

Using JavaScript for this is not a problem.
Depending on JavaScript for this is.

A client side check can speed things up for the user and save server round
trips. The cost is that the function has to be implemented twice.

Thanks for the clarification. That's what I meant, but it came out a
bit glib.
