Get the numeric pad when focused on the numeric field + IPAD

[Einar Dahle]

Hi,
 
        Is it possible to get the numeric pad when user clicks on a kendo numeric text field? like <input type="number"> in HTML5.
even I set the input field to be type number, when I wrap it with kendo numeric field it converts to type text.

Regards

Hello Shivanka,

 
When NumericTextBox widget is initialized, it changes the type of the input element to text. This is obligatory, because <input type=number> has many restrictions, like it does not allow globalized numbers or formatted strings. Hence the widget cannot use <input type=number> to operate normally.
If showing the numeric keypad is a must, then I will suggest you not use the NumericTextBox widget.

Hi,

      putting pattern attribute to kendoNumeric field saved my day. Ex. <input type="text" pattern="[0-9]*" />
