That's not a RTL input, it's just right-aligned :) (You still read the
values from LTR)
To format the numbers, I'd add a method in String.prototype
String.prototype.padAsFloat = function(precision) { // UNTESTED!
var precision = precision || 2, number = parseInt(this.replace(/\./,
"")).toPaddedString(precision + 1), decimal, integer;
decimal = number.substring(number.length - precision);
integer = number.length > precision ? number.substring(0,
number.length - precision) : "0";
return integer + "." + decimal;
}
Then you can capture the onkeydown event, get the pressed key, append
it to the current value, call padAsFloat on the string and then set
the input's value to the result. Or something along those lines :)
