Masked input taglib ver. 1.2

    Custom JSP tags library. Custom tag maskedInput lets you add input mask for your HTML controls (e.g. allow numeric input only, SSN number etc.). For example this input field lets you type only integer value:
 


<%@ taglib uri="taglib.tld" prefix="m" %>

<!-- integer value -->
<input size="10" name="amount" value=""
<m:maskedInput mask="^[0-9]*$"/>
>

and you will get some like this:

Some useful masks are:

- integer value: ^[0-9]*$
- allows negative value: ^-?[0-9]*$
- allows $ sign: ^\\\$?[0-9]*$
- allows float values: ^[0-9]*\\.?[0-9]*$

so for example this input field allows numeric values only:
 


<input size="10" name="amount" value=""
<m:maskedInput mask="^-?[0-9]*\\.?[0-9]*$"/>
>

Tags are:
