input type=number in BB10 with decimal point on virtual keyboard doen't working

I was unable to find the solution to this problem:

I use one in a webworks app. It's supose that this input will accept integers and float numbers.

The problem is: When I insert some data, for example 3.1415 the device removes the dot and inserts 31415.

I'm not using the input types inside a form so the "novalidate" option isn't possible.

I tried a lot of stuff to fix the problem. Any Idea?

Possible solutions(tricks): - Use type = text and force the keyboard layout to be the numeric one. - Disable the validation to this input (and no others).

Do you know how to do that? Do you know other solutions?

Regards. Pablo.

Solution

  • This is a know bug in Blackberry 10.

    There are posts about it in their support forum, here is a link to one of them.

    The only real way around it is to use a standard text input and validate the content yourself until this bug is fixed.
