🤬 Whoops, wrong layout!

A tiny library that fixes incorrectly selected layout if a field the user types to only accepts English letters, e.g. cardholder name field.

Check out the demo

Installation

npm install whoops-wrong-layout

Or just grab the file and do whatever you want with it.

Usage

const whoopsWrongLayout = require('whoops-wrong-layout');
const input = document.querySelector('.js-card-name');

whoopsWrongLayout(input);

Quirks

  • Corrects the letters as you type them on your physical keyboard:
    • won’t change what’s already in the field,
    • won’t mess with pasted text,
    • won’t change anything typed from a touch screen (you won’t be typing with a wrong layout from your phone anyway).
  • Works with any layout, but will only correct letters that are not in the English alphabet:
    • won’t mess with Dvorak or Colemak users (give’em a break, they’re already pretty messed up 🙃),
    • won’t mess with layouts that contain Engish letters in non-standard positions (like German, for instance).
  • Only corrects letters, doesn’t do anything with numbers, punctuation or any other symbols.
  • Doesn’t work in Internet Explorer, but also doesn’t break anything.
