Input type text not to take above a particular number in angularjs

I have an angular app in which I have a directive that wraps jquery slider and then there is an input field (type text) in which user can type a number (directive for taking only numbers is setup). This input field and slider share the same model.

Is there a way to restrict the user to not type more than lets say, 30, since, my slider's max value is 30?

Input field takes only two digits and now it should not go beyond 30 value. Do I have to write a directive for per-digit validation or that can be done in controller? Appreciate your help.

How about placing a bind on that input and, if the value entered is bigger than max change it to max? - Romeo Mihalcea
I tried that, not working. As user types lets say 50, the value still shows 50 until he blurs out that input. I was looking something like he/she cant type '5' in the tens place at the first place. Is it possible? - srikar sastry
I found the solution: $scope.$watch('transaction1', function(){ if($scope.transaction1 > 30){ $scope.transaction1 = 30; } }); I guess my binding was incorrect. Thank you Romeo. - srikar sastry

Why not make the input a type="number" with min and max attributes? - Davin Tryon
