Number field validation broken

[stenlee]

Steps to reproduce: just try to fill non number chars in example at https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/input/input%5Bnumber%5D
and check validation result. In myForm.input.$error collection the "number" property is always false.

Try type "9.9999999999999999e+23" or type "99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999" and press the up button, and you will see.

I think it should validate as NOT number also NOT Numbers .... ex "abc"

you're right, obviously --- I think this is a regression though, either in Chromium or in angular --- because this was definitely working at the time this was checked in

[caitp]

I'm looking into it

Yeah I think I can write a fix for this quickly, I really, REALLY wish Ian had plotted the constraint validation api better :(

[stenlee]

Thank you much Caitlin.

I'll see if that changes fixes the docs page once it builds on the CI server, I think it should
