RE: Default Input Mode Warning

You make it sound like the tag actually needs an attribute 'inputmode'
as in '<input type="text" inputmode="latin digits"...' - I've tried that
as well, and the checker seems to ignore that attribute, and still warns
with the same.  I googled and googled and did find a site where the guy
put the 'inputmode=' in his source.  But couldn't find any documentation
on it's proper use.  Finally I found using the Style tag with the -wap
code that I show below.  I thought that was the inputmode it was looking
for.

Hi,

 

According to mobileOK test document [1], only inputmode attribute is
considered. Furthermore, WAP CSS

styles are out of scope (only CSS Level 1) .

Regards,

Abel.

Asunto: Default Input Mode Warning

 

I still get this error:

'There is no inputmode attribute on this text entry element'

<input class="mobilenumeric" id="tlogin" maxlength="10" name="tlogin"
size="10" type="text"/>

 

Except the class named above 'mobilenumeric' has:

..mobilenumeric 

{

      -wap-input-format: "*N";

}

 

Also I've tested that this works on the mobile device.  Yet why do I
still get the above warning?  Because it's in the stylesheet and not
actually on the actual tag?
