Rules allow you to manipulate how a form is displayed by creating a simple ‘if-then’ structure to, for example, hide or show a field depending on a given condition.
Regular expressions (regex) can be used to control the data being entered into Interact Forms by your users.
When creating an Interact Form you often need to control the data fields to restrict what your users can enter, for example a National Insurance or Social Security number. Restricting data entry helps to guide your users to put the required information in, in the correct format.
There are multiple elements that can be used when creating Interact Forms, only the Text element offers full regex capabilities, whilst the other elements offer other, simple restrictions to control the data input.
