Enforcing Element Input

    Hey Ali,
    Sorry for the bother. EG: If I select a “NUMBERS” element for a ‘postcode’ capture on a form, can I make it so that ONLY NUMBERS can be entered? I thought that was the logical reason to select ‘numbers’ for that box purpose.. if it isn’t limited to only numerical input, I may as well use ‘one line text’ or any other box to capture it. I have looked everywhere but I don’t see that option of control for the numbers element? Also – is there an option to remove the right-side arrow up/down counter from that Numbers box?
    And also, can any red error messages be made to appear at the time of input error by the User, or can they only appear when they hit the SUBMIT button?
    Thank you, Stu

    Hi Stu,

    Not at the moment. The Number field does validate numeric input, but it doesn’t currently have a built-in option to lock typing to numbers only as the user types, remove the browser’s up/down arrows, or show red validation messages live before submit.

    If you want stricter input control for something like a postcode, the better option for now would usually be a One Line Text field with a custom input mask instead of the Number field.
