Text Entry fields and triggers are not accepting leading 0
I have TextEntry boxes set up for a data entry system simulation, which includes having learners enter phone numbers. The system requires two digit entries for day and month, 09/01/2021, for example...
Thanks, Joe. The issue is that it accepts the text entry 09/2102021, but the trigger doesn't recognize it.
Mike, in your leading_0.jpg, notice in the trigger panel that the value for TextEntry8 is in double quotes. Users would need to include those quotes in the date text entry field for that trigger to fire. Is that your intent? If not, remove the quotes in that trigger.
No, I was just trying to see if that would force the trigger to accept the leading 0, but it didn't, of course. I removed it.
It did accept the 0, but required the quotes, which I anticipated it would.
