set alphanumeric input with maxlength - html

<input class='inpuname' type='text' maxlength=5>
maxlength works
Now, I want the all of five characters to be alphanumeric
<input class='inpuname' type='text' pattern='[A-Za-z0-9]{5}' maxlength=5>
either maxlength nor pattern doesn't work. Any characters and any number of characters are allowed !

<form action="demo">
number:
<input type="text" pattern="[0-9]{5}"
maxlength=5
title="5 digit number">
<input type="submit">
</form>
This works. Try submitting the form with valid and invalid data

Is there a pattern to limit the first four numbers in my input box?

The result should be like this, 2018-00130. The first 4 numbers are year, I wanted to limit the year to 2010 up to 2022.
I have tried to use the input type = number but I can't limit the numbers since I need the dash sign.
My pattern for now is just like this, pattern="[^a-zA-Z]*" maxlength = "10".
This is a very basic RegEx and quite simple to implement.
Here's the code:
<form>
<label for="code">Code:</label><br>
<input type="text" id="code" name="code" pattern="20(1[0-9]|2[0-2])-[0-9]{5}" maxlength="10" required>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
Try this:
<input type="text" maxlength="4" style="width:50px;"> - <input type="text" maxlength="6">

Pattern attribute HTML not matching regex

So I have this line of code :
<form>
<input max="250" required pattern="[A-Za-z0-9 \.\,\!\?\:\[\]\(\)\"\-\+]+"
class="inputBox" type="text" id="comment" name="CommentContent" placeholder="write here">
</form>
but it doesn't seem to match anything at all.
I got it to work for more simple regex but not for this one.
I used a site to validate it and it looks like it's valid.
Change the wrapping quote and don't escape the chars other than the []
<form>
<input max="250" required pattern='[A-Za-z0-9 .,!?:\[\]()"-+]+'
class="inputBox" type="text" id="comment" name="CommentContent" placeholder="write here">
</form>

Validate Form Input using pattern match in html5 form

how to do validate form with input pattern . i have looked into w3schools pattern attribute but not able to get how to implement it in my way. i want to match my form input in this way. this is the appid = "EVISA2505550816" . this pattern should match in input field. where in every id IVISA is common then next 10 digits will be.
<form method="post" action="#">
<input type="text" id="appid" name="appid" pattern="" required>
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form>
You only have to write a regular expression in the pattern attribute :
\d means that you want a digit and {10} means that you want that char 10 times.
Note that if the first letter is not always E, you can write [A-Z]VISA\d{10}
<form method="post" action="#">
<input type="text" id="appid" name="appid" pattern="EVISA\d{10}" required>
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form>

Text of input is valid always

I'm going to realize input of text like this:
<input type="text" maxlength="16" required/>
And want to use valid and invalid stations like this:
input:invalid {
background: #fdd;
}
input:valid {
background: #dfd;
}
But when i write any text my input is valid always. I tried use pattern:
pattern=".{16,}"
But that did not solve anything. Where is my mistake?
The input must be valid when length of input is equal to 16.
You're close! Here's how to do it.
Allowing only alphanumerics
<form>
<input id="username" type="text" pattern="[a-zA-Z0-9]{16}" required>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="create">
</form>
Allowing any character
<form>
<input id="username" type="text" pattern=".{16}" maxlength="16" required>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="create">
</form>
With jQuery mask() plugin
Here, we just force the delimiter to be part of the input value followed by the number of characters in each group. In this case 4 numbers followed by a space.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#username').mask('9999 9999 9999 9999');
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery.mask/1.14.0/jquery.mask.min.js"></script>
<form>
<input id="username" type="text" pattern="[0-9]{4} [0-9]{4} [0-9]{4} [0-9]{4}" required>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="create">
</form>
For more info about regex and patterns, check out Regexr.
In your code, the attribute maxlength="16" does not allow more than 16 characters to be typed in the input box. The regular expression you are using is valid when the input is between 0 and 16 characters. Therefore, you regexp should be:
.{16,16}
And your HTML code:
<input type="text" pattern=".{16,16}" maxlength="16" required/>

HTML form name replaced with wrong symbols

I have the following form
<form name="input" action="http://testdomain.com/search/?" method="get" autocomplete="off">
<input type="text" name="?wpv_paged_preload_reach=1&wpv_view_count=1&wpv_post_id=205499&wpv_post_search=">
<input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="">
</form>
However the actual URL displays the following search query:
/search/?%3Fwpv_paged_preload_reach%3D1%26wpv_view_count%3D1%26wpv_post_id%3D205499%26wpv_post_search%3D=test
It seems that special symbols such as ? and = are getting replaced with special Encoding characters.
My question is, how do I get the form to not switch my special symbols with the encoding characters?
Thanks
The name of an input element controls the name of one field. The browser doesn’t blindly mash it and its value together and send that to the server. For a GET request, you can include each one as a hidden field:
<form name="input" action="http://testdomain.com/search/" method="get" autocomplete="off">
<input type="hidden" name="wpv_paged_preload_reach" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="wpv_view_count" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="wpv_post_id" value="205499" />
<input type="text" name="wpv_post_search" />
<input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" />
</form>
