Subject: Remove Role =Spinbutton for numeric textbox
No previous message | Next message →

Hi,

We have an issue where the textbox with datarole=numeric type using k- input class reads the textbox as "spin button editable blank" while the spinners are set to false .
Is there a way to remove role= spinbutton for textbox with input type=numeric or class =k-input so the screen readers doesn't read the textbox as spin button.
Appreciate your help.

Thanks ,
Manju
