Multiple short text answer different conditions for each box? was created by wilmslow3

Just wondering is there a way to have conditions of what is entered into each short text box.

I would ilke one to only contain characters (A-Z) and the second box to only contain numbers (0-9)

Is there a way to do this via regular expression?

Assuming sub-question codes SQ001 and SQ002, you could place something like this in the "Question validation equation":

Code:

regexMatch('/^[A-Za-z]*$/', self.sq_SQ001) AND regexMatch('/^[0-9]*$/', self.sq_SQ002)

And something like this in the "Question validation tip":

Code:

{if(regexMatch('/^[A-Za-z]*$/', self.sq_SQ001) AND regexMatch('/^[0-9]*$/', self.sq_SQ002), '', 'Please enter values in the correct format.')}
