sorry i am a first grader on this. I don't understand how js jquery and html are related.
the only reason I am doing this because the ne guy we hired to redo my VFP stuff in .net claims there are only textboxes in asp.net
I want to show a date mask as we had it in vfp for decades
could you just add to this code what is necessary for this on textcontrol to be masked for date like __\__\____

</head>
<body>
Date: <input name="Text1" type="text" />
</body>
</html>
>>yet another question:

>>Next, call the mask function for those items you wish to have masked.
>>jQuery(function($){
>> $("#date").mask("99/99/9999",{placeholder:"mm/dd/yyyy"});
>> $("#phone").mask("(999) 999-9999");
>> $("#tin").mask("99-9999999");
>> $("#ssn").mask("999-99-9999");
>>});

>>but I have no idea what to do with it.
>>how does on hook this up in html

>>ps: forgive me I am brand new to this js stuff
