Automatically formating TextBox to dd/MM/yyyy while typing using jQuery
Example here: jsfiddle.net/DotMaui/2g6ayjp5/1/
$(".my-date").on("keypress keyup",function (event) { if (event.key == "/" && $(this).val().length != 2 && $(this).val().length != 5) { event.preventDefault(); } else if ((event.which != 46 || $(this).val().indexOf('.') != -1) && (event.which < 48 || event.which > 57) && event.key != "/") { event.preventDefault(); } }).on("keyup", function (e) { ValidateDateFormat($(this)[0], e); }).attr("maxlength", 10) .attr("placeholder", "DD/MM/YYYY"); function ValidateDateFormat(input, e) { let seperator = "/"; let keyCode = e.keyCode; if (((keyCode >= 48 && keyCode <= 57) || keyCode == 8 || keyCode <= 37 || keyCode <= 39 || (keyCode >= 96 && keyCode <= 105)) && keyCode != 16) { if ((input.value.length == 2 || input.value.length == 5) && keyCode != 8) { input.value += seperator; } return true; } else { return false; } };
