"/" inside the pattern disables the "Submit" button

[antonielly]

The generator available at
https://xsd-forms.herokuapp.com/
creates a form whose "Submit" button does not work when the "pattern" of a string-derived element contains "/".

Minimal working examples:

a) The defect appears:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<schema xmlns:this="http://example.com/"
    targetNamespace="http://example.com/"
    xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

    <simpleType name="NonNegativeFraction">
        <restriction base="string">
            <pattern value="[0-9]+/[0-9]+"/>
        </restriction>
    </simpleType>

    <element name="nonNegativeFraction" type="this:NonNegativeFraction"/>
</schema>

b) The defect does not appear (i.e. it works correctly, as it should):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<schema xmlns:this="http://example.com/"
    targetNamespace="http://example.com/"
    xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

    <simpleType name="NonNegativeFraction">
        <restriction base="string">
            <pattern value="[0-9]+[/][0-9]+"/>
        </restriction>
    </simpleType>

    <element name="nonNegativeFraction" type="this:NonNegativeFraction"/>
</schema>

Both examples comply with the XSD structural rules according to tools such as Oxygen XML Editor.

Tested with Mozilla Firefox 41.0.2 on Microsoft Windows 7.

Thanks for the report. I'll have a look.

shouldn't be too hard to fix. I'll just have to escape certain characters in the generated javascript.
