Hi, is there a simple way to disable user entering some random text into the date time picker? I know there is kendo validator to validate the value, but my question here is how to stop user entering nonsense data.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
In general, the DateTimePicker widget allows different input formats, hence it does not restrict user input and the best way to validate the value is using a client validation framework.
If the mask is a must, then you can try to combine KendoUI MaskedTextBox and KendoUI DateTimePicker, but note that they are not intended and designed to work together and there could be undesired behaviors. Here is a demo that shows a proof-of-concept implementation combining DatePicker and MaskedTextBox (use on your own responsibility).
