text field validation

How to set up pattern validation for a text field in CF.

Overview

The issue is confusion about correctly entering the regular expression pattern and validation rules in the form settings.
Enter the regular expression pattern, including slashes, in the designated validation field and use the validation rules section for any custom rules or messages.

Hi!

I tried to set up pattern for text field validation, but I can't understand how to do this. Pattern like this pattern="[0-9A-Fa-f]{12}" or any other.

Can you help me, please?

Regards,
Sergey

Hi, Max!

It's difficult for me to understand how to fill correctly fields on the validation tab - 'Regular expression' and 'Validation rules' fields.

Hi Sergey,

The validation rules takes custom rules and messages, the other validation settings are the predefined ones.
