Retrieving the masked input's value without the mask

[ColocoParticipant]

Greetings,

I have a few masked inputs for phone numbers using the mask “## ## ## ## ##” (french way of displaying phone numbers).

I would like to retrieve the value of the input without the mask. For instance, if my input shows “03 8_ __ __ __”, I would like to get either “03 8” or “038”.

What’s the best way to approach this ? Am I supposed to use $('#phoneNumber').jqxMaskedInput('inputValue'); (which returns 038_______) and then remove the remaining _, or is there a better way to do this ?

Seems odd there doesn’t seem to be a proper way to do this since you can set the value property without the _ when creating the masked input (i.e. value:"038").

Thanks in advance,

Coloco

Hi Coloco,

You are using the only possible way to extract partial values.
Until now we are not included built-in function for that feature.

Hi SysProfile,

You can easily replace the mask characters: $(“#jqxMaskedInput”).val().replace(/-|_/ig, ”)

Hi Peter,

My English is the product of using Google Translate, I hope you can understand the following text

Ok, that’s what I’m doing, but if there is an additional function ?, for example valNoMask(). All that developers can avoid the direct use of program functions in javascript, make it more powerful components.

I do not know if it makes any difference, but I bought the product developer license for multiple sites.
