-------------------------------------
Summary: type="number" fails when decimal separator isn't "."
Key: TAP5-2409
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-2409
Project: Tapestry 5
Issue Type: Bug
Components: tapestry-core
Affects Versions: 5.4
Reporter: Geoff Callender
This probably affects versions before 5.4 too.
I have BigDecimal fields that I'm editing with TextField. On mobile devices I
would like a numeric keyboard to pop up, so I added type="number".
This all worked just fine in English, but then I switched locale to French and
found Tapestry's client-side validation rejecting it as not a number.
Digging around, I found that with type="number", the W3C spec requires the
browser to translate the field value to a String with a "." decimal separator.
The problem for Tapestry is that Tapestry's validation always expects the field
value to be untouched and in the format of the locale.
