jquery-inputcloak

What is it?

A simple plugin that cloaks/masks an input, similar to a password box.

Ex. 123-45-6789 becomes xxx-xx-6789.

How do I use it?

Include js files:

• jQuery
• jquery-inputCloak.min.js

Select any element and cloak them!

$('.yourpasswordinput').inputCloak();

Examples

Several options are available including pre-defined input types:

$('.yourpasswordinput').inputCloak({
   type: 'ssn',
   delay : 1000,
   symbol : '*'
});

You can also define a custom cloak method callback:

function getFromServer(value, $element, $cloakedElement){
   var customMaskValue = $.ajax({
    //get mask
   });
    $cloakedElement.val(cloakedValue);
    $element.val(value);
}

$('.yourpasswordinput').inputCloak({
   customCloak : getFromServer
});
