HTML itself doesn't support "smart controls", just the basic 5 input
containers. You can achieve edit mask behaviour with Javascript. The TMS

Also Google on "edit mask" +javascript. I got 367 hits. And Atozed (that
develops Intraweb) has its own newsgroups. It would be well worth asking
there. Links are here:
