I am trying to use the kendo numeric text box (jquery), however I'm having an issue. I'm using the text box to collect the user's year of birth. This can realistically be a value between 1902 and 2022 (the current year). I set the min to 1902 and the max to 2022. The user can also choose to leave this field blank and not provide a year of birth. When a user types 19 into the field it changes it to 1902. I don't want this as the likelihood that the user's year of birth is actually 1902 is very small. Instead I would like it to blank the field out. I have tried getting rid of the min and max values but then the up/down arrows become virtually useless since the user would have to click up 1,902 times just to get to a valid value.  How can I keep the up arrows starting at 1902 and ending at 2022 while also not having kendo change the value to the min or max?

I have seen a few other posts on the topic that are old and the issue was never properly addressed.

Hello, Lee,

As this is a built-in behavior of the widget, the only way to properly change it is to modify the internal logic that handles the adjusts the values.

I've prepared a Dojo example and left comments describing the overall idea behind the logic:

Let me know if you have any questions.
