I've created a fillable form and i'd like to create a text only textbox.

For instance, it's possible to create a date-specific text box, I'd like to do the same but only for text only and no other characters.

Please advise?

Did you test this code? Because it doesn't work... Instead, use this as the field's custom Keystroke script:

event.rc = /^[a-z]*$/i.test(event.change);

Hi,

You can do that on the validate of the field something like this

// event.rc = return true to let the value stay in the field, false to revert
// event.value.match = test the string against a Regex, returns true or false
// "[A-z]" - regex that allows all capital and lower case letters.
event.rc = event.value.match("[A-z]");
