I am trying to add a Date of Birth field with ability to type and have the field automatically add the slashes as needed. Is this possible through coffeecup?
I know how to add a place holder (MM/DD/YYYY) and RegEx (/[0-9]{2}/[0-9]{2}/[0-9]{4}/) to verify but people complain that they have to type / and cannot submit form.
Thanks

Hi Dimitry,
This should work,
Add a html element to your form and paste the code below into it. Adjust the date1 to the actual name of your date input.

var jQ = $.noConflict(true);

jQ( document ).ready(function() {
jQ('input[name="date1"]').bind('keyup','keydown', function(event) {
var inputLength = event.target.value.length;
if (event.keyCode != 8){
if(inputLength === 2 || inputLength === 5){
var thisVal = event.target.value;
thisVal += '/';
jQ(event.target).val(thisVal);
}
}
})
});

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
