Correct time mask

[disshishkov]

There is way to have correct time mask? 23:59
Default options is 29:59, that it allows to enter 15:00, but it also doesn't restrict 25:00

I'm also experiencing this issue. There's any patch to fix this?

Hi,
I resolved this issue with the combination of mask and regular jquery keypress event.
If the first letter entered is '2' then I am changing the mask value to "23:59".
My code is
$("body").on("keyup", "input[alt='time']", function (event) {
if (event.keyCode != 9 && event.keyCode != 16 && (event.keyCode < 37 || event.keyCode > 40)) {
var value = $(this).val();
hours= value.split(':')[0];
if (hours.length == 1) {
if (parseInt(value) == 2) {
$(this).setMask("23:59");
} else {
$(this).setMask("29:59");
}
}
}
});

Hi @emaiax I use a similar to @mrapaka "hack", but built-in mask for time will be great and it would not confuse many users.

$("input[alt='time']").setMask().keypress(function ()
    {
        var currentMask = $(this).data('mask').mask;
        var newMask = $(this).val().match(/^2.*/) ? "23:59" : "29:59";
        if (newMask != currentMask)
        {
            $(this).setMask(newMask);
        }
    });

@disshishkov I've used the same approch. Thanks a lot! :)
