Disabling english input doesn't really work

[veltzer]

We disable english input using the \w+ regular expression. Turns out this is not good enough since, for instance, it allows russian input. What we really want is to only allow hebrew input + ctrl characters.

Implement this (from stack overflow)

You can check the Unicode block for this language here, I guess it is Hebrew, so the code range is 0590-05FF.

Then you can use ngPattern to do the validation like this:

function ctrl($scope) { $scope.pattern = /[\u0590-\u05FF]+/g; }

While doing this, better have the אנא השתמשו במקלדת עברית message time out after 5 seconds or something like that.
