TextField mask

[Dominik]

Hi,

Is it possible to set a mask to a TextField that allows user to enter data only in a valid format?

For example, I would like to have a TextField where users could enter hours and minutes (hh:mm format).

In addition, is it possible that this mask was always visible in the TextField (in this case, 0:00 or __:__) like MaskEdit control form the Ajax Toolkit?

Hi,

As part of the UX project there is a <ux:InputTextMask> Plugin.


Example

<ux:InputTextMask runat="server" Mask="9999/X[0|1]X9/X[0|1|2|3]X9" />

The UX project is part of the SVN repository, or you can get it from the following location, see

Hope this helps.

Hi again,

I tried InputTextMask plugin and it fits ok all my needs...

But still with my time validation expression, which will be the best mask to allow a 24 hour format? I would like to allow 23:59 or 9:30 format, but I don't know how to set an expression for more than one character, so I don't know how to set the hour side of the expression with one or to characters from 0 to 23...

By the moment, I tried with this mask:

<ux:InputTextMask runat="server" Mask="X[0|1|2]X9:X[0-5]X9" />

Anyone knows some better solution?

Hi,

Does anyone know if InputTextMask is now compatible with Ext.NET v1.0 RC?

Thanks,

Dominik.
