Hey Jon, not too sure about the performance of this, but this should work:

    $(function() {


        // Contents of textboxes will be selected when receiving focus.
        $("input[type=text]")
            .focus(function() {
                var mask = "99/99/9999";
                $(this).unmask(mask).select().mask(mask);
            });
    });
