is there some code to make it??use ajax,javascript or something else??

Answer 1

Some barcode readers let you program the output sequence.
Depending of the brand you have a series of prefixes or sufixes to add to the output.
For the computer itself, the barcode reader is nothing more than a keyboard.

If you need to get rid of the serial number an model, in the manual you should have instructions to modify the output sequense.
If you need this data, you could use one of the many jquery input mask pugins to acomplish what you whant.
Also, it's possible that you will get one or two additional characters along with re reading, those are for differentiate the barcode type (EAN, UPC, etc), you can also disable those.

Answer 2

this barcode scanner will show KD-R411ED 105X0001 inside one textfield...i want it become KD-R411ED in first text field and 105X0001 in other textfield...all automatically separate into two textfield after scan the barcode... but for actually it appear in one textfield...this program is under progress...

you can do this...

var barCode = 'KD-R411ED 105X0001';
var data = barCode.split(" ");

you can access data this way...

var product = data[0]; // output KD-R411ED
var serial = data[1]; // output 105X0001

your code:

<script type="text/javascript"> 
     function addtext() { 
       var barCode = this.(text); 
       $("#model").change(function() { 
           barCode = $this.val(); 
           var data = barCode.split(""); 
           $("#model").val(data[0]); 
           $("#serial").val(data[1]); 
       }); 
     }; 
</script>

try this:

 <script type="text/javascript"> 

    $(document).ready(function(){

       $("#model").change(function() {  
           var data = $(this).val().split(" "); // not the space in .split(" ")
           $("#model").val(data[0]); 
           $("#serial").val(data[1]); 
       });

     });
