Special characters not allowed and of characters in single line text varaible

[shekhar3]

Hi,

I have a requirement have to allow user to fill International characters (ÀÂÉÈÊËÎÏÔÙÛÜÇàâéèêëîïôùûüç) in field along with regular characters and don't allow user to fill in numbers and special characters.

Can anyone help me how to achieve this in single line text field? 

Thanks

Hi Shekar,

You'll need to create a Regular expression for aplying that kind of control in a client script onChange. I let you some example below:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
        return;
    }
    var re = /^[a-zA-Z0-9]*$/;
	if (!re.test(newValue)) {
        alert('not valid format');
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}
