Title: Datebox accepts alphabetic characters, which it shouldn't
Post by: galcott on April 02, 2022, 04:01:43 PM

I have just found that the datebox component accepts alphabetic characters (a-z) which it definitely should not. Obviously it should only accept digits and date separators. I have tried to fix this by binding the keypress event to a function that checks the character typed and returns false if it's not a digit or separator but that doesn't work. How can this be fixed?

The code below shows how to override the 'inputEvents' and bind the 'keypress' event on the datebox component.

Code:

$('#d1').datebox({
	inputEvents: $.extend({},$.fn.datebox.defaults.inputEvents,{
		keypress: function(e){
			var c = String.fromCharCode(e.which);
			if ('0123456789/'.indexOf(c) >= 0){
				return true;
			} else {
				return false;
			}
		}
	})
})

That works but why isn't that the normal behavior? A datebox should only accept digits and separators. This is definitely a bug.
