input=number Sahi is not able to find field that is set to type number
Our application runs on IPads. We set some of the fields to input=number so the number keyboard appears when users click on filed.
Below I have an example of the text type input that works fine with sahi.
<input type="text" size="20" autocomplete="off" id="ext-gen47" name="estimateNumber"
class=" x-form-text x-form-field x-form-invalid" style="width: 52px; ">
sahi returns a handle like "_textbox("estimateNumber")"
Howerver, below is an input box that is a number type input box
<input type="number" size="20" autocomplete="off" id="ext-gen43" name="agentNumber"
class=" x-form-number x-form-field x-form-num-field x-form-invalid " style="width: 46px; ">
shai does not return a handle to use.
_textbox("agentNumber")" does not work as well

I am also having similar issues in my application while recording using Sahi. i was recording and replaying scripts on the application that uses HTML5 and unable to recognize the value from _textbox(" x-form-text x-form-field "). could you please send me the new build and instructions to install, so that some of my issues also might go away? I really appreciate if you could do me the favor.
