Question

I’m processing a creditcard swipe and retrieving the data and display it on my input fields. I have three actually. Cardnumber, expiration date and name on card.

I was able to display the data of cardnumber and name by using this

$("#cardnumber").val( result.cardnumber );
$("#name").val( result.name );

My question is how would i do it on a input field which type is set to month?

i tried this but doesn’t work $("#expdate").val( result.date ) the data for the expiration date is in the format of YY/MM or 12/08

UPDATE:

sorry the data for the date i’m receiving is in this format 1208 instead of 12/08

HTML

<input type="month" id="expDate" value="" />

Answer 1

From you post it seems

$("#expdate")

should be

$("#expDate")

Its a typos.

According to edit

if you date is always in format ddmm then following will work:

var x = result.date;
$("#expDate").val( x.substr(0,2) + '/' + x.substr(2) );
