autoNumeric is a jQuery plugin that automatically formats currency and numbers as you type on form inputs. It supports most International numeric formats and currency signs including those used in Europe, North and South America, Asia and India lakhs (Lakhs values supported below 1 billion).
Any number of currency formats can reside on the same page and are configured by settings/options that can be placed as HTML5 data attribute or passed as an argument. These settings can easily be changed at any time using the new ‘update’ method or via the callback feature. autoNumeric to many other elements, allowing you to place formatted numbers and currency on just about any part of the page.
Seven built in methods gives you the flexibility needed to use autoNumeric to its maximum potential. You can now easily start and stop autoNumeric, update the settings and remove the formatting from multiple inputs, preparing the values for manipulation or form submission.
There are fifteen settings/options which controls the behavior and format of the form input field. These setting are easy to implement with the HTML5 data or options passed as argument.
The settings can also be modified via callback function allows the returned value to be taken as parameter to the default/options settings. You can pass the callback function via options or HTML5 data and can be used on any of the 15 options.
If you are developing sites that span across International lines that use different currency symbols and formats you will find autoNumeric the ideal tool to shorten your development time.
The following is a list of the methods and settings/options the control autoNumeric - please my home page for a complete demo and documentation http://www.decorplanit.com/plugin/
'init' - initializes autoNumeric
- $('someSelector').autoNumeric('init', {options});
'destroy' - stops autoNumeric
- $('someSelector').autoNumeric('destroy');
'update' - updates autoNumeric's settings
- $('someSelector').autoNumeric('update', {options});
- Can be run multiple times
- Overrides the default settings and HTML5 data
'set' - returns a formatted string via jQuery's ".val()" or ".text' methods to the selected tag(s)
- $('someSelector').autoNumeric('set', value);
'get' - allows you to easily remove the formatting from a string on a autoNumeric controlled element and returns a string
- $(selector).autoNumeric('get'); - always returns value as 'nnnn.nn' with the period as the decimal point.
'getString' - this basically uses jQuery's .serialize() method which creates a text string (URL-encoded notation) from a set of form elements that is ready for submission. The extra step taken here is the string is split and iterated through and the formatted values are replaced with unformatted values. The string is then joined back together and returned
- $(selector).autoNumeric('getString'); - always returns the value as 'nnnn.nn' with the period as the decimal point.
'getArray' - this basically uses jQuery's .serializeArray() method which returns a JavaScript array of objects, ready to be encoded as a JSON string
- $('someSelector').autoNumeric('getArray'); - always returns the value as 'nnnn.nn' with the period as the decimal point.
'getSettings' - this returns an object that shows the autoNumeric settings for the field. You may find this helpful when developing a page
- $('someSelector').autoNumeric('getSettings');

"aSep" - controls the thousand separator character
- aSep: ',' comma (default)
- aSep: ''' apostrophe (note: the apostrophe is escaped)
- aSep: '.' period
- aSep: ' ' space
- aSep: '' none
"dGroup" - controls the digital grouping and the placement of the thousand separator
- dGroup: '3' produces 333,333,333 (default)
- dGroup: '2' produces 22,22,22,333 (India's Lakhs format on values below 1 billion)
- dGroup: '4' produces 4,4444,4444 used in some Asian country's
"aDec" - controls the decimal character
- aDec: '.' period (default)
- aDec: ',' comma
"altDec" - this was developed to accommodate for different keyboard layouts. altDec allows you to declare an alternative key to enter the decimal separator assigned in aDec
- altDec: null (default)
"aSign" - displays the desired currency symbol (examples: € or EUR). Note: other symbols can be used, such as %, °C, °F, km/h & MPH the possibilities are endless
- aSign: '' none (default)
- example - aSign: 'U$D'
"pSign" - controls the placement of the currency symbol (prefix or suffix)
- pSign: 'p' prefix to the left (default)
- pSign: 's' suffix to the right
"vMin" - controls the minimum value allowed
- vMin: '0.00' (default)
- example - vMin: '-999999999.99'
"vMax" - controls the maximum value allowed
- vMax: '999999999.99' (default)
Note - setting the vMin and vMax to both positive or negative with situations that limits the users ability to enter the proper values
"mDec" - overrides the decimal places that that are set via the vMin/vMax values
- mDec: null (default method)
- example - mDec: '4'
"mRound" - sets the rounding method used (9 different available)
- mRound: 'S' Round-Half-Up Symmetric (default)
- mRound: 'A' Round-Half-Up Asymmetric
- mRound: 's' Round-Half-Down Symmetric (lower case s)
- mRound: 'a' Round-Half-Down Asymmetric (lower case a)
- mRound: 'B' Round-Half-Even "Bankers Rounding"
- mRound: 'U' Round Up "Round-Away-From-Zero"
- mRound: 'D' Round Down "Round-Toward-Zero" - same as truncate
- mRound: 'C' Round to Ceiling "Toward Positive Infinity"
- mRound: 'F' Round to Floor "Toward Negative Infinity"
- mRound: 'CHF' Rounding for Swiss currency "to the nearest .00 or .05"
"aPad" - controls padding of the decimal places
- aPad: true always pads the decimal with zeros (default)
- aPad: false no padding
"nBracket" - controls if negative values are display with brackets when the input does not have focus
- nBracket:null no brackets use for negative values (default)
- nBracket: '(,)'
- nBracket: '[,]'
- nBracket: '{,}'
- nBracket: '<,>'
"wEmpty" - controls input display behavior
- wEmpty: 'empty' allows input to be empty (default)
- wEmpty: 'zero' input field will have at least a zero value
- wEmpty: 'sign' the currency symbol is always present
"lZero" - controls leading zeros behavior
- lZero: 'allow' allows leading zero to be entered. They are removed on focusout event (default)
- lZero: 'deny' leading zeros not allowed.
- lZero: 'keep' leading zeros allowed and will be retained on the focusout event
"aForm" - controls if default values are formatted on page ready (load)
- aForm: true default values are formatted on page ready (default)
- aForm: false default values are NOT formatted on page ready
Changing the defaults via options
You can change the defaults with options via the "init" method or the "update" method after autoNUmeric has been initialized - example:
<input type="text" id="someID" class="someClass">
$('someSelector').autoNumeric('init', {aSign: '€ ', vMax: '-999999999.99', nBracket: '(,)'});
- Initializes autoNumeric
- Adds the Euro sign
- Allows negative value of -999999999.99
- Allows brackets on negative values
Changing the defaults via HTML5 data attribute
You can also change the defaults with HTML5 data attributes - example:
<input type="text" id="someID" class="someClass data-a-sign="€ " data-v-max="-999999999.99" data-n-bracket"(,)">
$('someSelector').autoNumeric('init');
- Initializes autoNumeric
- Adds the Euro sign
- Allows negative value of -999999999.99
- Allows brackets on negative values
Note: By convention the data attribute is written in lower-case. Compound words (example: "aDec") need to be split and separated by a dash. The equal sign separates the name and value. The value should be enclosed with quote marks. If multiple options are being used they each need to have the own data attribute.
