Cmaskedtextfield Optional Field

vaibhavjha · September 21, 2012, 9:44pm

Guys I am trying to implement CMaskedTextField for car license plates

Basically it follows this pattern aa-9*-aa-9999 however for certain states the 3rd placeholder may have just 1 alphabet instead of 2. Like this aa-9*-a-9999

I am trying generalize this by using ‘?’ but it does not seam to work.

$this->widget(‘CMaskedTextField’, array(

	'mask' =&gt; 'aa-9*-a?a-9999',


	'placeholder' =&gt; '_',


	'completed' =&gt; 'function(){alert(1);}',


	'model' =&gt; &#036;model,


	'name' =&gt; 'registration',


	));

any help??
