Auto Enter Date Slash

[uschad123]

Is there a script or method to have the slash for the dates automatically appear when the date is entered?  Thanks in advance.

Put this code in the change event..

// restrict entry to digits and a dash
if (xfa.event.change.match(/[0-9\/]/) == null)
    xfa.event.change = "";

//restrict the input to 10 characters

if(xfa.event.newText.length >10)xfa.event.change = "";

// Allow the slash at the 3rd and 6th character
if (xfa.event.selEnd == 1 || xfa.event.selEnd == 4)
    xfa.event.change = xfa.event.change + "/";

Thanks

Thanks for the response.  That seems to work great other than the fact that I cannot backspace over the digits if there is a mistake.  Any ideas?

Thanks again.
