I need the client to enter the amount they are applying for between $10,000.00 and $20,000,000.00 in that format. I built $##,###,###.00 but the clients are frustrated as they would enter 100000 for $100,000 and it would show up as $10,000,0##.00 and they don’t know how to fix it. Thoughts?

Hi Todd,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I understand the issue, but I’ll need a bit of time to work out a solution. I’ll get back to you shortly.

Hello Todd,

Thanks for your patience. Please note that enabling an input mask in the field will restrict users to a specific format. They will need to enter an 8-digit number to make the value valid. As a workaround, we can use the Masked Input Widget and create a condition to prevent users from submitting the form if they didn't enter a value between $10,000.00 and $20,000,000.00. Let me show you how to set that up:

1. Add the Masked Input widget and set the decimal separator to "."
2. Add a number field and hide it by default, then create a condition to pass the amount of the input mask widget to the number field once it is filled.
3. Add an error message using a Paragraph Field then create a condition to show this error message and hide the succeeding fields if the amount from the number field is incorrect.

Result:

Here's my demo form. You can clone this form to your account by following this guide.

Give it a try and let us know if you need any help.

Fabulous! Thank you.
