Inputmask

jquery.inputmask is a jquery plugins which created an input mask ;-)

The plugin is based on the maskedinput plugin of Josh Bush (http://digitalbush.com/projects/masked-input-plugin), but has finer control over the 'mask-definitions')

A definitions can have a cardinality and have multiple prevalidators.

Example of some new definitions:

'd': { //day

"validator": "0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01]",

"cardinality": 2,

"prevalidator": [{ "validator": "[0-3]", "cardinality": 1}]

},

'm': { //month

"validator": "0[1-9]|1[012]",

"cardinality": 2,

"prevalidator": [{ "validator": "[01]", "cardinality": 1}]

},

'y': { //year

"validator": "(19|20)\\d\\d",

"cardinality": 4,

"prevalidator": [

{ "validator": "[12]", "cardinality": 1 },

{ "validator": "(19|20)", "cardinality": 2 },

{ "validator": "(19|20)\\d", "cardinality": 3 }

]

}

These allow for a finer date validation then 99/99/9999 which also allows 33/33/3333 for example.


Usage:

Include the js-files




Define your masks:

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#date").inputmask("d/m/y"); //direct mask
$("#phone").inputmask("mask", {"mask": "(999) 999-9999"}); //specifying fn & options
$("#tin").inputmask({"mask": "99-9999999"}); //specifying options only
});

Extra options:
change the placeholder

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "placeholder": "*" });
});

execute a function when the mask is completed

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "onComplete": function(){ alert('inputmask complete'); } });
});

mask repeat function

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#number").inputmask({ "mask": "9", "repeat": 10 }); // ~ mask "9999999999"
});

mask non-greedy repeat function

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#number").inputmask({ "mask": "9", "repeat": 10, "greedy": false }); // ~ mask "9" or mask "99" or ... mask "9999999999"
});

get the unmaskedvalue

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#number").inputmask('unmaskedvalue');
});

set a value and apply mask

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#number").inputmask('setvalue', 12345);
});

add custom definitions

$.extend($.inputmask.defaults.definitions, {
'f': {
"validator": "[0-9\(\)\.\+/ ]",
"cardinality": 1,
'prevalidator': null
}
});
