Encoding is important if you are going to use the mask with special characters like áéíóú (rule '@', see below for more). If you are going to allow these characters at your masked inputs and your page encoding is not UTF8, then you should add the charset attribute with value UTF8 to your script tag, like so:
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.meiomask.js" charset="utf-8"></script>- Accepts paste event;
- Has fixed and reverse mask types (allow number mask);
- You can still use your hotkeys and others (ex: ctrl+t, ctrl+f5, TAB ...);
- Works with iPhone;
- Allow default values;
- Has callbacks for invalid inputs, valid and overflow;
- Has function to mask strings;
- And much more!
meioMask has been tested with jQuery 1.7.2 on all major browsers:
- Firefox2, Firefox3, Firefox3.5 (Win, Mac, Linux);
- IE6, IE7, IE8 (Win);
- Chrome (Win, Mac, Linux);
- Safari3.2, Safari4 (Win, Mac, iPhone, yes, it supports iPhone!);
- Opera (Win, Mac, Linux).
It's a snap to use:
<!-- include jquery library and meioMask plugin -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.meiomask.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// call setMask function on the document.ready event
jQuery(function($) {
$('input[type="text"]').setMask();
});
</script>These are the default available options:
$.mask.options = {
attr: 'alt', // an attr to look for the mask name or the mask itself
mask: null, // the mask to be used on the input
type: 'fixed', // the mask of this mask
maxLength: -1, // the maxLength of the mask
defaultValue: '', // the default value for this input
textAlign: true, // to use or not to use textAlign on the input
selectCharsOnFocus: true, //selects characters on focus of the input
setSize: false, // sets the input size based on the length of the mask (work with fixed and reverse masks only)
autoTab: true, // auto focus the next form element
fixedChars: '[(),.:/ -]', // fixed chars to be used on the masks.
onInvalid: function(){},
onValid: function(){},
onOverflow: function(){}
};FixedChars, as the name says, are the fixed characters that you will have on your mask. For example if you mask is '99/99/99' you will probably want to have the '/' to be a fixedChar. So the fixedChars value can be '[/]'.
By default meiomask has some fixed characters that can be used to make the masks. You can change the regular expression that matches the fixed chars by changing the 'fixedChars' string. The default one is '[(),.:/ -]'.
Rules are symbolic characters that match a certain regular expression. meioMask has some defined rules but you may add yours to the rules object.
Making masks will be explained further, and you'll understand how to glue all this together :P.
meioMask defined rules:
$.mask.rules = {
'z': /[a-z]/,
'Z': /[A-Z]/,
'a': /[a-zA-Z]/,
'*': /[0-9a-zA-Z]/,
'@': /[0-9a-zA-ZçÇáàãâéèêíìóòôõúùü]/,
'0': /[0]/,
'1': /[0-1]/,
'2': /[0-2]/,
'3': /[0-3]/,
'4': /[0-4]/,
'5': /[0-5]/,
'6': /[0-6]/,
'7': /[0-7]/,
'8': /[0-8]/,
'9': /[0-9]/
};Pre-defined masks:
$.mask.masks : {
'phone' : { mask : '(99) 9999-9999' },
'phone-us' : { mask : '(999) 9999-9999' },
'cpf' : { mask : '999.999.999-99' },
'cnpj' : { mask : '99.999.999/9999-99' },
'date' : { mask : '39/19/9999' }, //uk date
'date-us' : { mask : '19/39/9999' },
'cep' : { mask : '99999-999' },
'time' : { mask : '29:69' },
'cc' : { mask : '9999 9999 9999 9999' }, //credit card mask
'integer' : { mask : '999.999.999.999', type : 'reverse' },
'decimal' : { mask : '99,999.999.999.999', type : 'reverse', defaultValue: '000' },
'decimal-us' : { mask : '99.999,999,999,999', type : 'reverse', defaultValue: '000' },
'signed-decimal' : { mask : '99,999.999.999.999', type : 'reverse', defaultValue : '+000' },
'signed-decimal-us' : { mask : '99,999.999.999.999', type : 'reverse', defaultValue : '+000' }
}You may add your own masks to the $.mask.masks object:
$.mask.masks.msk = {mask: '999'};This code will add a mask called 'msk' to the masks Object. Now you can use an input with the 'attr' attribute set to this new mask:
<input alt="msk" type="text" />// TODO inline some jsfiddles? (if not allowed, link them)
Input with the 'msk' Mask Msk:All the previously mentioned options are accepted to be used with your own created masks.

Demo Change Mask on The Fly on JsFiddle
<form action="index_submit" method="get"> <fieldset>
<legend>Example form with the change-on-the-fly feature</legend>
<label for="change_mask">Mask '(99) 666':</label>
<input id="change_mask" alt="(99) 666" maxlength="10" type="text" />
<ul>
<li><a onclick="jQuery('#change_mask').setMask('***:***').val('');return false;" href="#">Change mask to '***:***'</a></li>
<li><a onclick="jQuery('#change_mask').setMask('(aaa) **-9999').val('');return false;" href="#">Change mask to '(aaa) **-9999'</a></li>
<li><a onclick="jQuery('#change_mask').unsetMask().val('');return false;" href="#">unset the mask</a></li>
</ul>
</form>You can use it like you do with most of jQuery functions, chaining other functions. At this example the code for the first button is:
$('#change_mask').setMask('***:***').val('');This code sets the mask for all the elements that matches the selector '#change_mask' to ':' and then set it's value to ''.
