InputMask jQuery Plugin

/ Published in: JavaScript

Based on my Annotations plugin this plugin offers the ability to use Mask annotations to apply input masks over input elements on a page. Very much BETA. See comments for use.

 *  InputMask jQuery Plugin
 *
 *---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 *  Taking alot of inspiration and code from 
 *  http://digitalbush.com/projects/masked-input-plugin this is a masked input
 *  solution that should handle most cases.  It uses annotations to determine the
 *  actual mask.  Mask characters include,
 * 
 *      % - Any digit or numeric sign
 *      # - Any digit
 *      @ - Any letter
 *      * - Any letter or digit
 *      ~ - Any sign (+/-)
 *      ? - Currencies ($,Â£,â‚¬,Â¥)
