Email Field Type

Prev Next

Use this field type when you need to input email addresses. When used, the user can only input characters in the format of a valid email address. If a user attempts to enter an invalid email address, a clear error message is displayed, instructing them to “Enter a valid Email”. This automatic validation reduces the chances of error when typing in email addresses.
