I’m hitting on a strange issue with “number” fields (text fields set to restrict content to numbers) when used in Safecracker forms.

If I put a large number into the field, e.g. a million (1000000), the correct value is shown OK when outputting the entry using EE tags, but if I then use safecracker to *edit* the entry, the 1 million shows up as “1e+06”.

Any ideas?

Hi Steve,

That is odd. What is presented when you view the number/field via the Control Panel?

Can you share your SafeCracker template and your ExpressionEngine version with me?

Cheers,

Hi Dan,

Number is shown correctly when viewed in the Control Panel.

EE is bang up to date, latest version from the download page.

Safecracker form is as follows:

{exp:safecracker channel="ads" return="account" url_title="{segment_3}" include_jquery="no"}

<input name="title" value="Edit Ad" type="hidden">

{custom_fields}

{if textarea}
{field_label}<br>
<textarea class="txts" name="{field_name}" id="{field_name}">{field_data}</textarea></p>
{/if}

{if text}
{field_label}<br>
{if field_name=="ad_price"}£ {/if}<input type="text" name="{field_name}" id="{field_name}" value="{field_data}" class="txt"></p>
{/if}

{if safecracker_file}
{if field_name=="ad_photo_1"}Advert Photos{/if}
{display_field}
{/if}

{if multiselect}
{field_label}<br>
<select id="{field_name}" name="{field_name}[]">
{options}
<option value="{option_value}"{selected}>{option_name}</option>
{/options}
</select>
{/if}

{/custom_fields}

<input type="submit" value="Update Ad"></p>

{/exp:safecracker}

Thanks!
