Hi Satheesh,
you want to restrict the below char.
[5/10/2017 8:08 PM] Eshwar Prasad Mallikarjun:
Disallow following special characters (&
[
]
~
@
|
$
^
<
>
\
*
+
=
;
?
`
')
if yes then please check with script below.
function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
return;
}
var specialCharRegex = /[~@|$^<>\*+=;?`')[\]]/;
if(specialCharRegex.test(newValue)){
alert('special chars are not allowed');
g_form.setValue('<your field name where you are writing the special char>','');
}
}
I have tested it in my PDI and it's working fine.
Thanks,
Harshvardhan
