Validate Text Entry Field

May 31, 2012

I have multiple (3) text entry fields on a slide.  The text entry field needs to have five (5) characters in order to move forward.  I can't figure out how to validate if the field has any five characters....it looks like it has to be blank or an exact match. 

I know I'm missing something simple on the trigger to validate the variable the text field creates.  Anyone want to point me in the right direction?

Hi Jenny you could do this in javascript set a javascript trigger that sends the variable to JS count the number of characters if its less than 5 characters then popep a dialogue explaining this and reset the variable to null.

This is unlikely to work on an ipad or via html5

I did request validation early on in the beta, you could request a feature because the more the merrier.
