Field Properties can be accessed by Right Clicking on a field you’ve placed on the form. From here you can use CSS Code to format the field, establish field behaviors, remove the field if you don’t need it, and much more. 


Below is a list of links to various articles that cover the different functions which can be managed under Field Properties. 

Field Validation

The Form Engine is pulling the real fields, field types, choices and other properties as best as possible live from Quickbase into your forms, and most field types enforce valid input from form completer users (field validation), so the data sent into Quickbase from forms is valid.  

E-mail fields however will accept text, but Form Engine adds field validation requiring an @ with text before and after the @ for input into an Email field (unless you change the field type to Text).  If a form completer puts an email address that does not meet the validation requirement, the field will be highlighted in red like this and the Submit button will be grayed out until they correct the input:
