I am using Spring's form:input as below :
<form:input type="number" .....>
in my jsp but when I check the html that is rendered on the browser it shows like :
type="number" type="text"
i.e., two type
attributes are generated in the html.
On the other hand, if I check using inspect element option in the browser, it shows correct - only type="number"
as expected.
Edit- My Question: Why am I getting two type attributes in generated html (type="number" type="text"
) ? How to get it resolved?
Spring form:input
tag doesnt have any attribute named type
and the type=number
used in your code belongs to html5 input tag
Also have a look at HTML Text Input allow only Numeric input
Spring form tld lists the valid attributes of form:input
element here
HTML 5
with <!DOCTYPE html>
has native solution:
<input type="number">
Beware that it does not behave in standard way in some browsers.
Try input type="number" to see the HTML5 version in action.
See also https://github.com/jonstipe/number-polyfill for transparent support in older browsers.
I know this is old, but i found a solution that works just fine for me.
The spring:input
form tag doesnt support the type
attribute and there is no such thing as spring:number
.
But you can use jquery to add the type="number"
attribute to the parsed html.
I used:
$(".selector").attr({
"type" : "number",
});
