problems with jQuery-Mask-Plugin

Question

Guys I am using the jQuery-Mask-Plugin to create masks in the value fields, I liked it because it is very simple.

The problem is when I try to add a negative value it does not accept -. But I reviewed the internet and found a way for it to accept. The problem is that it is not formatting the field correctly.

I will put the code in JSFIDDLE because I could not make it work here.

As you may notice, the formatting has to be the same as

If anyone can help me, I’d be grateful.

I thought about changing something in the project, but I don’t know what I should do. Follow the link of the project code.

I recommend using the plugin jQuery maskMoney , this plugin will allow you to do exactly what you want in a simple and equivalent way.

Follow an example:

$(function() {

  $("input").maskMoney({
    allowNegative: true,
    thousands: '.',
    decimal: ',',
    affixesStay: false
  });

});
