I’m having a Java script on a skuid page to make a currency field editable, display that it is a required field and then validate it (by using change event). This is causing the following issue.

When I key in costs into currency field, the Java script validation forces a reformat about 1 second from my first keystroke. So, essentially, if i’m trying to type the number $293,576, and pause after ‘293’ for longer than a sec, it locks in, and i have to click into the field to edit the number.

How can I prevent this from happening?

I’m attaching a screen shot of the Java script that i’m using.
