Allow only numbers in dial mode

[jfc-ddev]

In the latest version it was found:

• When a character is entered, it no longer detects backspace and the entered value cannot be deleted.

• It is still allowed to write characters other than numbers.

Tip: You could try adding a regex to apply event.preventDefault() when it is verified that it is not a digit.

Are you sure you updated the version? I checked that button as well. Open the docs and try there. As I see everything works as expected.

[jfc-ddev]

Yes, I have version 17.4.1 installed. I'm trying in the dial mode of the documentation, and it lets me enter chars 🤯

How do you do it? Maybe cache? Because I can't enter anything else except number.

[jfc-ddev]

I hold down the shift key + one of the following keys [ ] } { -

I've tried a lot of combinations on mac and windows and couldn't reproduce it. Did you clean browser cache?

[jfc-ddev]

Yes, I did it but the bug is persistent

[dhutaryan]

I figure it out. This is some specific behaviour for Spanish keyboard. It ignores preventDefault for some reason. Even numeric value check doesn't work. Not sure it will be fixed, at least for now.

[jfc-ddev]

Did you try using a regular expression to allow only numbers and then using a preventDefault?

[dhutaryan]

Yes, I did. It didn't help as I remember.

Hi

Do you have any news?

[dhutaryan]

Nope. I believe the most important is that you cannot apply non-numbers. The fact you can enter into the fields some tricky value that will be replaced on blur is not a big deal.

Hi

[dhutaryan]

@jfc-ddev nope. Now the exact value is checking and it doesn't work even in this case. There is a magic with Spanish keyboard. Not sure it will be fixed someday.
Anyway, as I said before, the most important that invalid value will be changed to valid after blur.
