Portal not enforcing UI element property settings

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have deployed a WD app to the portal. What I noticed was that though the "length" property of a UI element, say the input field, is set to a specific value, I am able to enter more characters than the length set at design time.

Is there anyway I can enforce the design time layout settings ?

Hi,

Length property of the UI element is just the physical length.

You can go for simple type ,but even in this case the length will be truncated to the specified length only whil processing and not while entering.

Hi,

In order to restrict the Maximum Length(say an input field) to a specific value, you have to create a simple data type of built-in type string and set the Maximum Length. This is bound to the value attribute, which in turn, is bound to the input field. You can also specify Minimum Length and Fixed Length, if required.

This will solve your problem.

hi Shrikant,

You can specify the maximum length of the simple type associated with the context attribute mapped with the UI element. This might work.
