Decimal Places

The property decimalPlaces declares the decimal point to the value of PercentageTextBox control. The default value of decimalPlaces is 0 in PercentageTextBox control. To set the decimalPlaces to “-1”, that allows the decimals without any limit in PercentageTextBox control.

Configure Decimal Places

The following steps explain the implementation of decimalPlaces in PercentageTextBox.

  • HTML
  • <table cellpadding="10">
        <tbody>
            <tr>
                <td>
                    <label for="percent">Percent</label>
                </td>

                    <input id="percent" type="text" />
                </td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>
    </table>
  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#percent").ejPercentageTextbox({
                value: 22,
                decimalPlaces: 2
            });

    The output for PercentageTextBox with decimalPlaces is as follows.

    Persistence Support

    The PercentageTextBox widgets provides the state maintenance support. You can maintain the previous changes made in the control after a page loads.

    Configure Persistence Support

    The following steps explain the implementation of enablePersistence in PercentageTextBox.

    Strict Mode Support

    The PercentageTextBox widget allows you to use the strict mode option by setting the enableStrictMode property. You can set the minValue and maxValue to the controls to enable strict mode functionality. When the Textbox value exceeds the maxValue, it restricts the exceeded value and returns the maxValue. Likewise when the Textbox value goes below minValue, it restricts the new value and returns the minValue.When this property is true, it will not restrict the specified value and an error class will be added to indicate wrong value is provided to the PercentageTextBox.
