In my aspx:
<td class="data"><%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.LastContainerStartDate)%></td>
where lastContainerStartDate is of dataType DateTime
and in
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#LastContainerSeqNum").numeric();
$("#LastContainerStartDate").mask("99/99/9999 99:99:99");
$("#LastContainerEndDate").mask("99/99/9999 99:99:99");
when the page get loads => only loads the date with full mask format
Ex: 10/01/2010 loads fine. 01/01/2010 comes with blank field
How can i make my mask format for first char optional.
First - I suggest that you add a tag to this post clarifying which plugin this involves, because .mask is not a native method for JQuery.
Second - could you please clarify your question?
Ex: 10/01/2010 loads fine. 01/01/2010 comes with blank field
It seems that you are trying to input 01/01/2010, which should be legal input given that mask, and I was able to input that data, and retrieve it from the db (and populate correctly) in my own testing.
But then you ask:
How can i make my mask format for first char optional.
Could you specify what exactly you are looking for? Are you looking to make the input accept a string like 1/1/2010, or are you having problems making it accept the leading zero?
