in there, num is passed in but I'm guessing it wasn't working, because num isn't actually a "number" field, it's a "text" field that contains all numbers.
so I need to convert num from a text into an actual number, before that if(!pattern.test(num)... line hits. How can I do that?
Things I've tried so far in the client script:
added in the function
num = num.replace(/,/g,''); //remove the commas
var numAsNumber = parseFloat(num); //try to parse the input as floating-pt number
var pattern = new RegExp("[^0-9]"); //removed the comma after 9
HTML
<div class="form-group">
<label for="phone">Phone</label>
<input id="phone" name="phone" ng-model="c.Form.data.u_phone" type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Number..." ng-readonly="!c.Form.editing" ui-validate="{numbersOnly: 'c.validation.fields.numbersOnly($value, c.Form.data)'}" ui-validate-watch="'c.Form.data.u_phone'" maxlength="500">
</div>
</div>
CLIENT SCRIPT
c.validation = {
fields: {
numbersOnly : function(num, equipment) {
var pattern = new RegExp("[^0-9,]");
var test = !pattern.test(num);
if(!pattern.test(num) || (num === undefined))
return true;
return false;
},
