Enter data in field automatically as user types |

I know this might be too much, but you know how clients are ... they are
asking that while typing a date in a field.
Which is 10 digit long (mm/dd/yyyy). That once they enter the first two
digits the "/" is displayed automatically, then type the next two digits and
the other "/" is entered automatically, finally user enters the last 4
digits.
This would allow them to enter the numbers only, is this possible ?

Z,
to do this as they type would probably require some JavaScript - search free
java sites for that
ASP or PHP, you could set the date field server binding behaviour (on the
panel) to determine the format once its been entered
or you could determine the date format inside your ASP/PHP code, but again
only once its been entered
you could put something like this in your code to at least show the desired
format:
<input name="end_date" type="text" class="afBlack_08" id="end_date"
onFocus="if(this.value=='2004-12-30')this.value=''"
onBlur="if(this.value=='')this.value='2004-12-30'" value="2004-12-30"
size="19">

yeah, I have been searching, this is ASP and the format is : mm/dd/yyyy
Still nothing yet. The idea is for the user to enter "01" then automatically
get "/", then enter "02" and automatically the other "/" finally user enters
"2004".
If anyone has seen something like this please let us know.

Why not choose a solution a see around quite a lot : have three input fields
and automatically jump to the next field. Just my 2 cents.

Many reasons, one being the huge number of date fields in my system, then I
would need something else to display the dates in 3 diferent fields, etc.
