HARD field on soft input.

so im writing a code that asks user to input birthday. Out of sheer curiosity, I want to know if its possible to create a static field in which the user inputs the birfday into. i.e.


1
2
3
4
//insert birfday
cout << "Insert your long,
hard birfday: ";
cin >> birfday;


1
2
//what it looks like to the user
Insert your long, hard birfday: /  /  


you see those / / things, thats what im talking. so they would type in something like 02/21/1933. but they wouldn't type the slashes because they would be there. dig?
