Change type attribute from
tel
totext
for phone number input elements so that users can write "N/A" as instructed on mobile, if necessary.Using
type="tel"
does not introduce validation as withemail
orurl
. As far as I can tell, the key difference between atel
input element and atext
one is that mobile users are directed to a numbers-only keyboard in the case of the former. Since this is the behavior we want to change,type="text"
should work.
