How can I convert user input, in a text entry field, directly to uppercase using Java? I've fumbled around with it, but can't make it work.

Best answer by TomG

``` jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").on("input", function() { this.value = this.value.toUpperCase(); }); ```

Building on, how do you use this code to convert just one field in a form fied to upper case? In my case, I need just the "Email address" field to be in upper case - see screenshot. What's the JS for this?

TomG Hi, I managed to figure that for the first or last field, I could use:
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText:first") or jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText:last")
But how about for fields that are in the "middle" - like the "Email address" in the screenshot?

jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").eq(1)
