I have a mobile website form that I want to add type attributes to the inputs so that there correct keyboard format will pop up.
However in cakephp setting the type as number a textarea is created instead of the input and the type is not set.
Setting type as text does work.
How do I overide this and have cakephp just keep it as a text input with type=number?
<?php echo $form->input('phone',array('type' => 'number')); ?>
Result:
<textarea id="UserCardExpires" rows="6" cols="30" name="data[User][card_expires]"class="ui-input-text ui-body-c ui-corner-all ui-shadow-inset"></textarea>
This is ok:
<?php echo $form->input('postcode' ,array('type' => 'text')); ?>
Result
<input type="text" id="UserPostcode" name="data[User][postcode]" class="ui-input-text ui-body-c ui-corner-all ui-shadow-inset">
