Storable and platform agnostic field formatting

A method, comprising:

• receiving, from a web server by one or more hardware processors of a user device associated with a user, first programming code associated with electronic content for display on the user device, wherein the first programing code is computer platform and geographic region agnostic, wherein the electronic content is configured to obtain a particular type of information from the user, and wherein the electronic content comprises a submit element for submitting the particular type of information to the web server;
• determining, by the one or more hardware processors, a computer platform and a geographical region associated with the user device;
• retrieving, by the one or more hardware processors from a remote server different from the web server and based on executing the first programming code, a text file comprising formatting data associated with formatting one or more data input elements for obtaining the particular type of information according to a region specific format corresponding to the geographical region associated with the user device, wherein the formatting data specifies one or more data fields associated with the particular type of information and formatting rules associated with each of the one or more data fields according to the region specific format;
• extracting, by the one or more hardware processors, the formatting data based on parsing the text file;
• dynamically generating, by the one or more hardware processors, second programming code that implements the one or more data input elements of the electronic content based on the formatting data, wherein the second programming code is specific to the computer platform associated with the user device;
• rendering, by the one or more hardware processors based on executing the second programming code, the one or more data input elements as part of the electronic content on the user device;
• deactivating, by the one or more hardware processors based on executing the second programming code, the submit element of the electronic content;
• and
• in response to detecting user data inserted into a first data input element in the plurality of data input elements, automatically formatting the user data according to a first one of the formatting rules associated with the first data input element.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon machine-readable instructions executable to cause a machine to perform operations comprising:

• obtaining, from a service provider server, first programming code associated with user interface content for display on a user device associated with a user, wherein the first programing code is computer platform and geographic region agnostic, wherein the user interface content is configured to obtain a particular type of information from the user, and wherein the user interface content comprises a submit element for submitting the particular type of information to the service provider server;
• determining a computer platform and a geographical region associated with the user device;
• retrieving, from a remote server different from the service provider server and based on executing first programming code associated with the user interface content, a file comprising formatting data associated with formatting a plurality of input data fields for obtaining the particular type of information according to a region specific format corresponding to the geographical region associated with the user device, wherein the formatting data specifies a plurality of data elements associated with the particular type of information and formatting rules associated with each of the plurality of data elements according to the region specific format;
• dynamically generating second programming code that implements the plurality of input data fields corresponding to the plurality of data elements based on the formatting data, wherein the second programming code is specific to the computer platform associated with the user device;
• programmatically associating each of the formatting rules with a corresponding input data field in the plurality of input data fields;
• rendering, based on executing the second programming code, the plurality of input data fields formatted according to the region specific format as part of the user interface content on the user device;
• deactivating, based on executing the second programming code, the submit element of the user interface page;
• and
• in response to detecting user data inserted into a particular input data field in the plurality of input data fields, automatically formatting the user data according to one or more of the formatting rules associated with the particular input data field.
