I am using the jQuery plugin found at https://github.com/RobinHerbots/jquery.inputmask but I can't seem to be able to derive a pattern that corresponds to a integer & a decimal. For example,
I need the following to be valid:
10
150
12.25
0.45
At the moment I am doing:
$('#from_id').inputmask("9{0,5}.9{0,2}");
But this means that if the user does not specify what comes after the decimal point, the resulting output is:
For example, if the user only wants to input 12 (and he does not specify the decimal point) the output is
12___.__
(as the mask is waiting for the decimal point)
But if the user specifies the decimal point, for example 12.00, The output is fine like:
12.00
Could someone help me with this problem?
Try to use the optional parmaneter greedy
like,
$('#from_id').inputmask({'mask':"9{0,5}.9{0,2}", greedy: false});

You can validate above mask. Or use your own logica to validate like,
$(function(){
$('#id').on('keyup', function(e) {
if (!this.value.match(/^\d{0,5}(\.[0-9]{1,2})?$/)) {
$(this).addClass('error');// adding error class
} else {
$(this).removeClass('error');// remove error class
}
});
});
Demo
Or simply use toggleClass like,
$(function() {
$('#id').on('keyup', function(e) {
$(this).toggleClass('error', !this.value.match(/^\d{0,5}(\.[0-9]{1,2})?$/));
});
});
.error {
color: red;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input id="id" />
Have you tried using multiple masks?
$('#from_id').inputmask({'mask':["9{0,5}.9{0,2}", "999"]});
