Input Converters

I'm trying to setup an input converter that will change inputted data (e.g. 1234123412341234 --to--> 1234-1234-1234-1234) on the fly when entering data into a field. I know there are mask converters, but I believe this only takes effect with submitted data? Has anyone found an easy way to go about this with XPages?

Re: Input Converters
Ryan,
Convertors are used to convert front-end input into the back-end data (and the other way around).
The easiest way, I guess, is to use client-side JS on one of the events of the field (onkeypress, onkeyup, onblur).

Re: Input Converters
Thanks for the tip. I ended up using a jQuery solution: http://digitalbush.com/projects/masked-input-plugin/
