Solution 1

Here is clear cut solution

Masked Input[^]

Here is manual js: This works on onblur:

JavaScript

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function formatPhone(obj) {
            var numbers = obj.value.replace(/\D/g, ''),
        char = { 0: '(', 3: ') ', 6: ' - ' };
            obj.value = '';
            for (var i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
                obj.value += (char[i] || '') + numbers[i];
            }
        }
    </script>

And HTMl Code:

HTML

<input type="text" name="test"  önblur="formatPhone(this);" />
