Cross-Browser Mask Edit Control

G

Guest

Hi all,
I have an ASP.NET web project that requires some mask control for entering
Birthday, SSN, Phone number. I searched on Google and found some mask
controls that worked very well on IE. But with Mozilla they did not work.
Any body have any idea about these controls, or know where can i find it?
And i wonder if we can write these controls with JavaScripts (Cross-Browser
support)
I appreciate your help.
Thank You

For dates, there are numerous third party DateTextBoxes with popup
calendars. Some have very good filtering of keystrokes and can reformat date
entries. Mine is "Peter's Date Package"
(http://www.peterblum.com/datecontrols/home.aspx). There are some good demos
on my site. It includes time entry and validators too.

I have studied the issue of masked text boxes as I've thought about creating
a commercial one. I'm not satisified that the underlying browser technology
offers enough to keep the user out of trouble when they move the insertion
point inside existing text. (IE doesn't even let you know where the
insertion point is.) So even if you find a masked textbox, please be sure to
assign a validator to it (like RegularexpressionValidator) to confirm it
matches your requirements.
