html text box issue within the context of html forms for VA

acordes — Mon, 22 Nov 2021 00:24:03 GMT

I'm adapting a html form to my needs. The example is from @XavierBizoux

I want to add a inputtype="text" object which is not data-driven but regex controlled.

It shows the container section but the text box does not appear.

It works with the inputtype "validationtext".
The mentioned blog entry from @xavierbizou lays the groundwork for my customized html prompt as it includes dependencies and grouping, data sources and filters.

Hi Arne,

Sorry for the late feedback. I'm happy to read that you found the solution to validate the input using regular expressions.

Please let me know if you have other questions.
