I am building a form to accept a time value HH:MM, how can I filter the user input and show the colon in the text field? I guess I'm looking for some kind of filtered input box.
Thanks

Thats commonly referred to as an Input Mask, do some googling on it. Edit: There appears to be an input mask jquery plugin

Whilst the TimePickr plugin recommended by Jonathon is very nice to look at, if the user is doing any volume of data entry, it's going to drive them mad. I answered a similar question a while back explaining why:
A masked input box and a bit of javascript validation may be a more optimal solution.

I loved the look of it but when I played around in a proof of concept for one of our customer thingies I got a bit demented by it :)
