Form field validation not working with constrained data type
Posted: Mon Dec 28, 2020 10:20 pm
I created a contact form with four fields. I wanted to make sure they all have data, so I set up the data. It worked (i.e., got the error message when field was not filled out) when the fields had Data type = No Constraints. When I changed them to Data type = Text, the validation no longer worked. Are there special considerations for setting the Text Formats? Can the Other not be special characters? E.g., for a phone number, some enclosed the area code in parenthesis and use a dash or period in the main number.
