Form fields added from ' control palette have built-in validation rules. The table below details the default validation for each control type in ' palette. Patterns added to a control change the defaults.
| Control Type | Default Validation Rule |
|---|---|
| Text | xsd:string |
| Text Area | xsd:string |
| Date | xsd:date |
| xsd:string with pattern [a-zA-Z0-9\-_][a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]*(\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)*@([a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,6} | |
| Money | xsd:double |
| Phone | xxxxxxxxxx, xxx-yyy, xxx.yyyy, xxx-yyyyzzzz, xxx.yyy.zzzz, |
| Time | xsd:time |
| Quantity | xsd:decimal with pattern [\-+]?[0-9]+ |
| Number | xsd:double |
| T/F | xsd:boolean |
If a user clicks submit and any of the controls listed above fails validation, the controls will be highlighted with an orange color indicating that the form cannot be submitted. See above for other methods to notify users when forms are invalid.

This pattern allows you to specify the number of decimal places for Number Controls. Change the number 6 in the pattern to the desired number of decimal places. Note there is a period before the second slash.

An customized error message displays if the user enters more than the allowed number of decimal places and the control becomes invalid.

<xsd:simpleType name="emailType">
<xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
<xsd:pattern value="[a-zA-Z0-9\-_][a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]*(\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)*@([a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,6}"/>

You can also create a custom email pattern on Text control. This would be useful to ensure users only enter their work or school email, for example. Drag a text control from the palette and set the pattern as follows, replacing "@domain.com" with your domain.
| Code Block |
|---|
[a-zA-Z0-9\-_][a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]*(\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\+_]+)*@domain.com |
Phone pattern
Lets say you would like to change the phone control validation from the ' current built-in pattern. Cloud customers must apply Patterns to a text control while in-house customers have two options
- Apply patterns to a control - Like other control properties, the pattern property will not need to be redone when you upgrade .
- Modify the built-in values in the types.xsd file. Be aware that if you modify the types.xsd file, you will have to make this change each time you perform a upgrade or apply a patch.
...
If you are using Online, you will not have access to types.xsd. Both cloud and in-house customers, can override the pattern in the phone control by setting its pattern property. You can only restrict a built-in pattern (such as the phone control) but not change the pattern via the pattern property. For example you can add the pattern 203-\d{3}-\d{4}. Now all phone numbers must start with area code 203.
| Tip |
|---|
The Pattern property will not need to be redone when you upgrade . |
A pattern such as ##-####-#### or ####-###-### is not a simple restriction. To impose validation against this pattern you must start with a Text control rather than a Phone control
