Glad you figured out a workable solution. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/formatting-the-other-choice-field#post-61087 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 06:26:26 +0000 Chris Booth 61087@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks for that suggestion David!</p> <p>In the end, I added a custom validation on that field so it throws an error message if the £ sign is there, or if anything else weird is input.

You can using the pre_submission filter check to see if the field has the £ and strip it if it does using PHP before the form is submitted and processed. </p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_pre_submission_filter" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_pre_submission_filter</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/formatting-the-other-choice-field#post-60925 Thu, 31 May 2012 06:55:36 +0000 Chris Booth 60925@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've built a form for making donations, with radio buttons for various amounts, and 'Enable "other" choice' selected so that there is a text input where the donor can enter a different value. (Form is here: <a href="http://mnds.the-graphics.net/fundraising/donations/)" rel="nofollow">http://mnds.the-graphics.net/fundraising/donations/)</a></p> <p>The problem is that some donors type the £ sign in this field as well as the amount, which causes problems when the payment is processed. I would like to simply add the £ sign before the text input, but I can't see any way of doing this, as there's no place to add a label to that field.</p> <p>Any suggestions would be appreciated! </p>
