Data type | Specifies the data type of the element. Each data type is connected to a validator that checks whether text was entered in the correct format. When the data type date is selected, a calendar shows up that lets the user quickly select a particular date. See also internationalizing the calendar. For formatting numeric input with a certain precision and optionally units such as € or kg, the function autoNumeric can be used. By selecting the data type regular expression, you can use a custom regexp for validation. This will also display another field named error text, the text that will be displayed when the text of the input field does not match the regexp. The text of the error message can be translated into different languages as well. The regexp flavor is JavaScript, described in detail at mozilla.org. |
