Can I setup input masks in dreamweaver form?

For example date to be in this format:

##/##/####

Social Security:

###-##-####

Ect..

How do I change an existing form field from just a text box to a drop down box (list from a table in an Access database I am already using)

Thank You!

For input masks, you can use the Spry Validation TextField Widget in CS4: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSC0A9CA2A-E807-441a-ACC2-7B5E7A503C74a.html.

To create a drop down using a database, create a recordset to retrieve the values you want, and then bind the recordset values to a dynamic menu: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSAA25ABC8-AE90-4fcb-9347-2349394A445B.html.
