I understand that text_field
creates an input field of type text
, while email_field
creates an input field of type email
.
But, what is the difference between these two input types ?
Say I have a client model while a client has an email. Should I use email_field
here ?
The email field is the new html 5 input which right now behaves the same on most of the machines with the exception of a few mobile devices such as the iphone where it switches to a different keyboard.
You can find more about it by googling html5 email field
.
It's just a touch of finesse which some users will appreciate.
