How to force uppercase or lowercase when entering data in labels?

[Francois M. FASBENDER]

Hi there,
do you think this is achievable to force uppercase or lowercase when entering text in labels?
Today people can enter a value either with big case or either with small case as well, it means the same value/text can appear several times in labels.
Thank you!

In Confluence all labels seem to default to lower case.

If you mean JIRA, you'll need to add some JavaScript like this:

AJS.$('#labels-textarea').live('blur',function(){
  AJS.$(this).val( AJS.$(this).val().toUpperCase() );
});

Either find a suitable JavaScript file to update, or hack it into the admin section in a similar manner to this.

Hi Davis,

thank you for your comment, I'll check your solution (JIRA related).

And sorry to be late in my reply but I have some difficulties to understand how this new forum works.

Thank you.

François.

David,

I pasted the code in the annoucement banner but this code is displayed as a text in the banner.

Is there something else to do? Sorry I have no knowledge with javas, html, ...

Thank you! François.

That's JavaScript, you'll need to wrap it in <script> </script> tags for it to execute.

François, Penny is exactly right. wrap it in script tags :)

In which application? JIRA, Confluence, or Answers itself?
