Add dash in auto complete phone number
The above answers were fine, but I faced some issue while copy paste that is entry of other character other then number so I used:
$('#help_number').keyup(function(){
$(this).val($(this).val().match(/\d+/g).join("").replace(/(\d{3})\-?(\d{3})\-?(\d{4})/,'$1-$2-$3'))
});
Example:
str="34%^gd 5-67 6-6ds897"
str.match(/\d+/g).join("")
output is : >> "3456766897"
str.match(/\d+/g).join("").replace(/(\d{3})\-?(\d{3})\-?(\d{4})/,'$1-$2-$3')
output is : 345-676-6897
You can try this code.
$(function () {
$('#txtnumber').keydown(function (e) {
var key = e.charCode || e.keyCode || 0;
$text = $(this);
if (key !== 8 && key !== 9) {
if ($text.val().length === 3) {
$text.val($text.val() + '-');
}
if ($text.val().length === 7) {
$text.val($text.val() + '-');
}
}
return (key == 8 || key == 9 || key == 46 || (key >= 48 && key <= 57) || (key >= 96 && key <= 105));
})
});
HTML input
<input id="txtnumber" type="text" maxlength="12" placeholder="xxx-xxx-xxxx" />
You can also see in jsfiddle
