    min :
        selector : '.foreSummary'
        process  : (data) -> data.trim()
        required : on
    max :
        selector : '.foreSummary > span',

itemProcessFn = (item) ->
    if item.min?
        item.min = item.min.replace /\D+/g, ''
        if item.min.length
            item.min = parseInt item.min, 10
        else
            delete item.min

    if item.max?
        item.max = parseInt item.max, 10
