jqueryHow can I use jQuery to create a phone number mask?


To create a phone number mask using jQuery, you can use the mask method of the jQuery Mask Plugin. This plugin allows you to specify a mask for input fields that will automatically format user input as they type.

For example, to create a mask for a US phone number, you can use the following code:

$('#phone').mask('(000) 000-0000');

This code will create a mask for an input field with the id phone that will automatically format the user's input as a US phone number.

The code consists of the following parts:

  • $('#phone') - This is a jQuery selector for the input field with an id of phone.
  • mask('(000) 000-0000') - This is the jQuery Mask Plugin method that specifies the mask for the input field.
