Hi,

I require a textbox control that would accept input in the form : 2 w 3 d 5 h 6 m. User should be able to edit the values before d, w, h and m ( which represents weeks, days, hours, minutes). Is it possible to use MaskedTextBox to achieve the same. w,d,h and m should not be editable.

Thanks,
Divya

You can accomplish this by implementing a MaskedTextProvider.
See an example of how to implement it here.

You can implement it by using CSS class. Create a CSS class and in document.ready create a function using query(".cssclassname").functio{ write the regular expression to validate the input given in any input text box which ever has added this class}.
As query can access any control using either Id or a CSS class name. Please let me know if need more clarification

Thanks and regards
