HTML pattern - Regular Expression not working in Dreamweaver and nowhere locally.
My pattern in the html form is very simple
<form>
<input type="text" pattern="[A-Za-z]{2,30}" required>
<!--SEND button bla bla bla...-->
</form>Why the input still accepts characters like $ ^ % @ #...??? They are VALIDATED like correct, valid characters. I wanted to accepot unicode characters, so I've been implementing the `\p{L}` and similar, so I understabnd that some characters are difficult to restrain or filter but to this `A-Z`, so basic, accepting symbols and numbers??? confusses me. Or DW regex don‘t work at all in local environment? If field is empty I got the client validation of Bootstrap, because I am using Bootstrap utilities too. I have also server side validation. Three pictures attached. 1. If Empty, red message advises me. 2. The wrong characters typed. 3. Correct VALIDATION with the wrong characters, so the PATTERN didn't work. Orientations, please.
