Auto Format Phone Number in Jquery
javascript, jquery
Solution
Since you're using jQuery you can try jquery masked-input-plugin.
There's a jsFiddle for you here where you can see how it works.
The source code for the project on GitHub can be found here.
The implementation is more than simple:
HTML:
<input id="ssn"/>
javascript:
$("#ssn").mask("999-999-999");
UPDATE:
Another good one can be found here.
Problem
I have one textbox for phone number. My phone number should be XXX-XXX-XXX like this format. I got the solution for XXX-XXX-XXX format, but i don't know how to modify that code. ``` $('#ssn').keyup(function() { var val = this.value.replace(/\D/g, ''); var newVal = ''; while (val.length > 3) { newVal += val.substr(0, 3) + '-'; val = val.substr(3); } newVal += val; this.value = newVal; }); ``` http://jsfiddle.net/ssthil/nY2QT/
