Hi,
I have one DECIMAL field in an English language based form. There is a JS which fills the value accordingly to a calculation.
With English user it works, but for Spanish users it doesn't validate the field saying it isn't a decimal.
How can I solve this issue? Thanks.
PS we don't need to create a Spanish form...

Hi. I am trying to understand your case here. Can you elaborate more on which part that does not work in your js calculation against spanish users? Does the decimal format difference cause a different interpretation between the users so therefore you say it does not work?

My case is: 2 integer fields (A and B), then a 3rd field (C) where I divide the 2 values through a JS (A/B). When English users logged in they can submit the form without problem, while Spanish users have the error "The value is not a decimal". If they change language setting it works...

Can you confirm that your Spanish form is configured properly?

I don't need to activate Spanish form. The problem is that in Spanish language the decimal number is expected with "," instead of "." .
So, my form is in English with a decimal field. My English users write 5.8 and it works while Spanish users write 5.8 and it doesn't work while 5,8 works.
This is really a problem for JS too..
