CFINPUT mask

If you don't know the length in advance, a mask will then be irrelevant. At least, that is what I think.

You mentioned Javascript. I would recommend using it to validate the input. 

Let's assume you wish to validate IBAN bank-accounts. The following Javascript provides a simple example to start with.

<cfif isDefined("form.fieldnames")>
	<cfdump var="#form#" >
</cfif>

<cfform name="myForm" action="#CGI.SCRIPT_NAME#" onsubmit="return validateIbanForm()" method="post">
IBAN1: <cfinput type="text" name="Iban1" size="27" maxlength="27">
<cfinput type="submit" value="Submit" name="sbmt">
</cfform>

<script type="text/javascript">
function validateIbanForm() {
 	var iban = document.forms["myForm"]["Iban1"].value.trim();
  	if (iban == "") {
    	alert("The field may not be blank. You must enter your IBAN");
    	return false;
  	}
  	/* In France, for example, an IBAN has 27 characters. */
  	if (iban.length != 27) {
    	alert("You must enter a valid IBAN");
    	return false;
  	}
  	return true
}
</script>

Bonjour,
La reflexion " Essayez peut-être de reformuler une fois de plus. 🙂" n'est pas gentille et surtout ... n'apporte rien.
D'autre part, je n'ai pas de réponse à mes 2 questions que je reformule :
1 - mask quand on connait pas la longeur à l'avance ( Exemple : 0.50 ou 2.25 ou 65.85 ou 357 ou 1 253.35.)
2 - est-il possible d'empécher une saisie quand une condition n'est pas remplie (peut-etre en javascript).
Merci de l'aide

Hello,

The reflection "Maybe try to rephrase one more time. :smiling_face_slightly:" is not nice and above all ... does not add anything. On the other hand, I have no answer to my 2 questions that I rephrase:

1.  mask when we don't know the length in advance (Example: 0.50 or 2.25 or 65.85 or 357 or 1 253.35.)
2.  is it possible to prevent an input when a condition is not met (maybe in javascript).

Thanks for the help

Well,  when you say "prevent", that implies validation--which you're not doing. As far as I know,  the mask just controls display of values as people type. That said,  you show using maxlength,  and that WOULD prevent the browser from letting you type more than 4 characters.

Maybe try rewording one more time. 🙂
