Just to let you know, I really like the plugin. It solves a lot of
problems I anticipate happening with our website.
About the delete key issue. Mostly I noticed it when I entered input,
tabbed off and then realized there was an error. When I shift-tabbed
back in, the plug-in reverts to the beginning of the entry. If you
want to delete the entry, that's when the delete key issue appears.
Since the backspace works as anticipated, maybe the plugin could check
if there is a value in a masked input and then collapse to the end,
that will take the delete key out of play:
{ var r=exElement .createTextRange() ;
r .moveStart( 'character',exElement .value.length ) ;
r .select();}
