Answer:

The way to do this would be to write a client side javascript function in one the onKeyDown/onKeyUp/onKeyPress events of the field ... in that function you can do something like this:

�

if(window.event) { // IE
�� keynum = e.keyCode
} else if(e.which) {� // Netscape/Firefox/Opera
�� keynum = e.which
}

keychar = String.fromCharCode(keynum)

�

then keychar will be the character they entered.� I believe in onKeyDown, you can return false, and it will not record the character, but you'll have to experiment to make sure.

Answer:

If you use thisEvent in the client side script, you could do something like this:

if( !/[A-Z]/.test( thisEvent.keyChar ) ){
� �dojo.stopEvent( thisEvent );
}

�

The above code stops the event when the key entered isn't an uppercase letter.�

Answer: There's a client side jQuery plugin which lets you set up, and enforce, various input masking options: Masked Input Plugin Perhaps there's a Dojo equivalent?
