Change column of format type 'email' to text without hyperlink on portal

[Cris2]

Hi

I have a column named email of Data type = 'Single line text'; Field type = 'Simple' and Format = 'Email'.

On the portal, when I am entering an email, I would like to:

1. Change the style to simple text without an underline.

2. Remove hyperlink, i.e. on single or double clicking on the email id, I do not want to open an email client.

Please let me know how can I achieve this using javascript and/or metadata on the portal management app.

Thanks

Cris

Hi @Cris2 

It seems that email field is in FORM, not Entity List. Please confirm.
