How to hide the HTML5 number input's spin box ?

<input id="test" type="number">

Solution 1:


Firefox:

In Firefox browser, the default value of the -moz-appearance property on these elements is number-input.
To changing the value of text field effectively to removes the spinner.

input[type="number"] {
    -moz-appearance: textfield;
}

We want the spinner to be hidden initially, and then appear on hover/focus.

input[type="number"] {
    -moz-appearance: textfield;
}
input[type="number"]:hover,
input[type="number"]:focus {
    -moz-appearance: number-input;
}

<input type="number"/>

Chrome:

In Chrome, the default value of the -webkit-appearance property on these elements is textfield.
To remove the spinner, the -webkit-appearance property's value wants to be changed as none on the ::-webkit-outer-spin-button/::-webkit-inner-spin-button pseudo classes.

input[type="number"]::-webkit-outer-spin-button,
input[type="number"]::-webkit-inner-spin-button {
    -webkit-appearance: none;
    margin: 0;
}
<input type="number" />

Margin: 0 is used to remove the margin in earlier versions of Chrome. Here 'inner-spin-button' pseudo class is the default value:

input::-webkit-inner-spin-button {
    -webkit-appearance: inner-spin-button;
    display: inline-block;
    cursor: default;
    flex: 0 0 auto;
    align-self: stretch;
    -webkit-user-select: none;
    opacity: 0;
    pointer-events: none;

}

    margin: 0; /* <-- Apparently some margin are still there even though it's hidden */
}
