Restrict number of characters in field

SafetyUniversity · August 6, 2020, 4:44am

Hi all-

Is there a way to restrict the number of characters in a specific field. For example, only allow 4 digits for an input field that would be designed for a vehicle year?

Thanks,
~Adam

Ive just learned about HTML attributes for forms, and the attribute I believe you are looking for is Size=4

I’m just not sure how / where you can modify the HTML of the form.

If you cant modify the HTML, you would need to do it in JAVASCRIPT

I’m still learning a little more each night, so if I solve it ill repost here.

Hey Adam - the easiest solution is to use a VALIDATION RULE on the form
