Custom Questions Text box and Text area not allowing characters /,$,:

[Tami]

Hi again, Since our events are usually multiple day conferences, I need to allow registrants to enter the date and time of their arrival so we can arrange airport transportation. I have tried both text boxes and text areas but neither are allowing the special characters I need. Is there a work around to this? I could try to explain it in an "instructions" section on the template but I'm concerned the registrants could get discouraged.
Thanks,
Tami

Tami,

I have requested our developers to review this and see if we can make a quick adjustment to accommodate this.

I let you know by tomorrow.

Does the - character work in event registration?

Can you please tell me which characters don't work using the 2.0 version. Thank you.

Good day!

We allow the following characters: Alpha Numeric, Space and the following special Characters $ , : - . / '

The following are being restricted: [<({~!#%^&*_+="?;|\})>] @

We are testing all components with each of these characters to ensure we don't cause issues with Salesforce, etc. and will add more characters in release 3.0.

Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance.
