How can I create a mask that accepts "+" sign and numbers?

hi may i know how to create a phone number field where the users can only enter "+" and other numbers? 

i have tried recreating the phone number field via text box, however it is only able to validate alphabetical, numerical, currency, cyrillic, alphanumeric, email and URL.

i want to create a entry field where users can input "+" sign when they feel like indicating their country code, as well as numerical digits for their phone number input.

Is it possible? anyone know the solution?

Thank you

You can add a phone number field, activate the country code and then add the following css:

#input_1_area {

    display : none;

}

#sublabel_area {

    display : none;

}

#cid_1 span.phone-separate {

    display : none;

}

You can test and clone the demo form:

Hi Carina,

thanks for your help but what i wish to create is a single field instead of both country and phone entry field.

At the same time, i can still submit the form by inputting alphabets and other special symbols for contact form, may i know how to limit the input or create a validation where it just accept "+" and numeric digits?

thank you.

I think there's no available feature in the form builder that allow such validation. However, you can still achieve this when you use your form source code and inject custom script that perform such validation.

Alternatively, you might want to consider using the International Telephone Picker widget. This has an option to select the country code with + symbol in it.

Hope this helps!

Hi Elton,

Even the international widget also accepts special symbols and alphabets as contact number, which is undesirable.

Unfortunately I believe it is not possible because if you want a numeric validation, then it is not possible to add the + sign. But the + sign can be replaced by 00, or you can add the + sign in the label:

Hi Carina,

Is it possible to set max number of character in the field? i think that's the least i can do now.

Thanks.

Yes, you can set a maximum character limit on a textbox field. You can also change its validation to numeric to accept only digits. Here's how:

Alternatively, you can also use a Number tool.

Hi elton, 

Unfortunately, that widget doesn't have a max limit character option so it is not possible.

Thanks!

Am i able to submit a request for that feature to be uploaded?

Thanks

Sorry for not taking the initiative. I have raised that as a feature request on this thread http://www.jotform.com/answers/746855. Kindly check.
