Hi,

I need some help, I'm using Regular Expressions using numbers in Form Builder. I would like when someone enter their phone number they have dashes between the numbers and when they get a confirmation email they only see the Last four numbers and the rest are X's. How would I write in the custom /^[0-9]+$/.
Example: They see 888-888-8888 when they fill the form out.
But the confirmation email looks like xxx-xxx-xxxx or xxx-xxx-8888. If any help. Thank You!

Hi GG,
I would add another input that's hidden and use JQuery to fill that in with the value in the format you want.
Then in the Confirmation email use individual variables instead of the form results.
example:
[_form_results_] would report all variables.
[phone_xxx] would be one input named phone_xxx.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Is their another way just to be easier for me just to use the custom /^[0-9]+$/. I don't have to go all in detail and finding the value input?

There's not really a way to manipulate the data unless you want to hack into the backend php or build a custom confirmation page that you use the custom redirect option on and then use the $_SESSION variables with some php code to display what you want.

That's a Regex to allow only entering numbers from 0 to 9.

Kinda thought so. I'll just my best to figure it out with JQuery, but if not Ill just leave it alone and let it stay how it is. I might need some question the further. But Thank You!:)

Give me a second to upload an example to my server.
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <script>// ver 1
var jQ = $.noConflict(true);
jQ(document).ready(function(){
// ****Uncomment the line below after testing code *** //
//jQ('input[name*="email_xxx"]').parent().parent('[id^="item"]').css('display','none');
jQ("input[name='phone']").on('change', function() {
var phone = jQ(this).val();
var regex = /\d(?:(?:\D*\d){4})/gm;
var subst = 'x';
var phone_xxx = phone.replace(regex, subst);
jQ("input[name='phone_xxx']").val(phone_xxx);
});
});</script>
