I want my hours input field to allow only numbers utill 2nd decimal point (numbers with only a single dot).
I used this expression for the same /^[0-9]+(\.[0-9]{1,2})?$/ and this allows 1.1. which should not be allowed

3Could you please share a demo fiddle? Did you use `type="text"`? The [test page](https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngPattern) says the pattern works well. – Wiktor Stribiżew Apr 07 '16 at 10:09

I used type="number" – ronak barbhaya Apr 07 '16 at 10:11

@ronakbarbhaya: You need to set it to "text". – Wiktor Stribiżew Apr 07 '16 at 10:12

Does it work? Please share the full relevant code. – Wiktor Stribiżew Apr 07 '16 at 10:48

Yup it worked thanks, but if i want this to be worked with type="number" then what should be done? – ronak barbhaya Apr 07 '16 at 12:12

It won't work at all then, it is not possible. – Wiktor Stribiżew Apr 07 '16 at 12:14

i have added lower and upper limit as 1 and 60 respectively for this, so if i include type="text" then it doesn't give me the validations for this limit.. so could you find another solution for this – ronak barbhaya Apr 07 '16 at 12:22

There is no other solution if you plan to use a regex. – Wiktor Stribiżew Apr 07 '16 at 13:14

The pattern is matching the right type of input. The type of the input should be set to text:
<input type="text" ng-pattern="/^[0-9]+(\.[0-9]{1,2})?$/" />
A regex validation check is not supported with type="number".
UPDATE
To only allow float/integer values between 1 and 60, use
/^([1-9]|[1-5][0-9]|60(\.0{1,2})?$)(\.[0-9]{1,2})?$/
See the regex demo
^- start of sting([1-9]|[1-5][0-9]|60(\.0{1,2})?$)- one of the following:[1-9]- digit from1to9(no0allowed)[1-5][0-9]- numbers from 10 to 5960(\.0{1,2})?$- 60 that is optionally followed with.0or.00and then an end of string should follow
(\.[0-9]{1,2})?- optional (1 or 0).followed with 1 or 2 any digits before...$- the end of string

For 1 to 60, use [`/^([1-9]|[1-5][0-9]|60(\.0{1,2})?$)(\.[0-9]{1,2})?$/`](https://regex101.com/r/vO6cX6/1) – Wiktor Stribiżew Apr 07 '16 at 13:13
