Allow numbers only in fields?

[roattw]

I have a table field AGE set as an integer.  I need the form to disallow alpha characters in that field when exiting that field.  Cant get it to work.  I still have submissions allowing "approx. 50" and I need to limit them to discrete numbers only.

I added this script in footer, which helps, but its only on submit.  Isnt the fact that the field type is INTEGER mean it wont accept letters by default?

 

Can I use HTML5 to make it easy?

<input type="number" name="quantity" min="1" max="5">

Hi,

Just to update this post, since you are using an Integer data type it will just accept numeric characters, then you can set the minimum and maximum input on the character length.
