Restrict input field size

how can i restrict the size of an InputField to 100 characters?
Nikhil

Nikhil,
In Local Dictionary of WD project create your own custom type that is based on string and has Max. Length = 100 restriction applied.
Change type of corresponding context attribute to this new custom type.
InputFields these are bound to aforementioned context attribute (with restricted type) will inherit max.length restriction automatically.

Restrict Input Field For Fix Length

I want to restrict the input field to 10 chars.
Both JTextField + PlaintDocument or JFormattedTexTField + MaskFormatter can do that.
So, I want to know which one is much better.
Thank you!

I, personally, prefer the approach via PlainDocument. The thing about JFormattedTextField is that it's giving a pretty bad user feedback as it allows entering the text and then rejects it when losing focus. With subclassing PlainDocument you ensure the user won't enter more than 10 characters in the first place.

Restricting max lenfth in Input field

Hi,
I have use BW standard Object and this is binded to my Input field. Since BW Object is of length 60, Input field in Web Dynpro is allowing me to enter 60 Character. I want to restrict the input field to 40 so that user can not enter more than 40 character.
Is there any possiblity to restrict input field without changing binding elemnt.
Thanks
Abhishek

Other option is restrict the no of characters entered by user by binding it with context attribute of char40.
OR
you could even avoid the OnEnter event of Input field if you have some more UI fields in your layout i.e.
If you have a dropdown or a button to naviagate to other screen, then you could check there also.
If there is no other UI, Try writing the code in wddomodify, but please be aware that wddomodify is called on evry event.
So if you are writing code to restrict no of characters to 40 in wddomodify, write it with a conditon like :
if lv_input is not initial.
< check the no of char and throw erro.>
endif.
lv_input has the value of input field which you could read by code wizard i.e control + F7.

Changing the size of text input field in xml style coldfusion forms

Does anyone know how to get the size attribute of a text
input field to work in a coldfusion xml form?
Example: When I enter the following code and view the form in
a browser, all of the fields are the exact same size.
<cfform format="xml" name="testingform" method="post">
<cfformgroup type="horizontal">
<cfinput type="text" name="first_name" size="10"
label="First Name">
<cfinput type="text" name="middle_init" size="2"
label="Middle Initial">
<cfinput type="text" name="last_name" size="20"
label="Last Name">
</cfformgroup>
</cfform>

Indeed a mistake in the Coldfusion engine. Or is there some
reason for it? In any case, you should report it.
Look in the source, and you will see why it happens. The XML
form makes use of the stylesheet
/CFIDE/scripts/css/default_style.css. There the width attribute is
hard-coded for the cfinput element, thus
.cfInput, .cfTextarea {
font-size: .8em;
font-family: inherit;
width: 200px;
I would replace that block with
.cfInput {
font-size: .8em;
font-family: inherit;
.cfTextarea {
font-size: .8em;
font-family: inherit;
width: 200px;

How to restrict number of character to be entered in an input field??????

How to restrict the user to enter only numeric values in a input field

How to restrict the user to enter only numeric values in a input field.
For example,
i have an input field in that i would like to enter
only numeric values. no special characters,alphabets .
reply ASAP

Hi Venuthurupalli,
As valery has said once you select the value to be of type integer,once you perform an action it will be validated and error message that non numeric characters are there will be shown. If you want to set additional constraints like max value, min value etc you can use simple types for it.
On the project structure on left hand side under local dictionary ->datatypes->simple types create a simple type of type integer
The attribute which you are binding to value property ;make its type as simple type which you made
Hope this helps you

restrictions to a basic input field?
Basically I have this input field and I would like to

Also how do I set a minimum and maximum number of characters

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You can purchase an upgrade, but the only options available as a qualifying previous product are CS5 and CS5 Extended and Acrobat X Suite. It isn't entirely clear if CS5 also includes CS5.1 or not, so I'd suggest using the Chat Now button over at the side to clarify.
To get to this listing, you can go to www.adobe.com then click Search and type in Photoshop CS6 then click the Buy button next to Photoshop CS6 in the results Creative Suite 6 then edit your cart to make it an upgrade:
You can also choose the Extended version of PS CS6 which is more money and can additionally do things with video and sequences of images and maybe 3D, although I'm not exactly sure at this point since I already have PS-CS6 Extended as part of my CC Photography Plan PS-CC+LR for $10/month.

Is it possible to restrict the "paste" functionality on a wd input field?

The requirement I have is not allow to copy and paste a value on a given webdynpro input field. Does anyone know if this is possible? If so, how?
Thanks in advance,
Diego

Hi Yuval,
not sure about your answer. Does the attribute "readonly" will prevent or will not prevent pasting values? I am not sure about your reply since after your sentence you say "there is not way to restrict user from copying the value....." and that for me reads like "there is no way to prevent from pasting the value ......".
Please advice and thanks in advance,
Diego.

How to restrict the length of input field

Hi,
How to restrict the length of input field. That is we should not be able to enter more thatn 10 charecters.
Regards,
H.V.Swathi

Hi swathi,
For this you have to create a simple data type. No need of writing a code.
Go to Dictionaries -> Local Dictionary -> Data Type - > Simple Type - > Right click and "Create Simple Type".
Here you should create a Simple type with String as built-in Type. Here you will also see the Length Constraints option.
Set the value of maximum length and minimum length. In your case set the value of maximum length to 10. At runtime this will not allow the user to enter more than 10 characters.
Now create an attribute and bind it to this newly created simple type. Bind the value of the input field with this particular attribute.

All of the input fields in the browser are very large while other text is normal size. How do I fix this?
In some cases some sites headers will run together and sometimes overlap. Other sites will just show a portion of the site in a vertical box but not the full width of the screen and I can't adjust it.

Hi Srinu
You could achieve this by configuring error messages under the formula:-
Select the control properties and in the Input field at the Display tab write the formula
"IF((@<LEN(text)>10),'appropriate message','Records available')"
Note :- there is a LEN(text) under text functions in formula tab.

Restricting a user to enter fixed characters in an input field (mobile)

Hi All,
I have created a simple type and set its length to some fixed characters. I have mapped this simple type to an input field. When I run this application on desktop it doesn't allow the user to enter characters more than the fixed length of the simple type. But this functionality is not available on the mobile ie. when I try to enter some text in the input field on the mobile device it allows me to enter as many characters as I want and the fixed length property of the simple type doesn't work here. Can anyone suggest me a solution for this. Reply ASAP.
Thanks in advance,
Murtuza

padma,
You have to set it in the wdDoModifyView()
if ( firstTime ) {
IWDInputfield inp_field = (IWDInputfield) view.getElement("<inputField_ID>");
inp_field.requestFocus();
