How to add hyphens(-) in date field?

Suraj Borade

Question

Hello Team,

My requirement is that when user enters date in text box in YYYY-MM-DD format, I want to add hyphens(-) automatically in date value.

e.g. user enters 2017, what I want is that hyphen should be added immediately and it will look like 2017-

then user enters month as 05 and it should look like 2017-05-

How to achieve this?

Thanks and Regards,

Hello Suraj,

Best option would be use some mask, like this component.

P.S. Other than this, only applying it yourself with JavaScript.
