prevent register with none English letter

[nimafire]

hey

how can we prevent customer from registering who register with local language character

only allow English character 

this doesnt work now :

pattern="[a-zA-Z ]+" oninvalid="this.setCustomValidity('fill form in english')" oninput="setCustomValidity('')" {if $loggedin} readonly="readonly"{/if} autofocus

have you unticked the "Allow IDN Domains" in setup -> general settings -> domains ?

Ticking this option allows domains containing any character to be used. When unticked WHMCS will only allow clients to use a-z and 0-9 in domains.

i mean sign up, not registering domain.

IMO the best approach is use transliteration. This way customers can freely register using any alphabet and transliteration will convert them to latin charachers like follows:

• 川島 永嗣 becomes Eiji Kawashima
• Mandžukić becomes Mandzukic
• 颜骏凌 becomes Yan Junling

You should transliterate on ClientAdd, ClientEdit, ContactAdd and ContactEdit.

ive use  this in input :

onkeypress="return /[a-z]/i.test(event.key)" title="{$LANG.fillinenglish}"

but im looking for better way , this will prevent customer from enter none english character in input
