Topic: MDBSelect Validation
Hi All,
We are using the React's version of MDBoostrap. We need to add validation into the MDBSelect component. Like this if a user doesn't select an item, we need to show him an error message.
How can we achieve this ?
Best Regards

Hi,
In that topic described a possible way to achieve that:
https://mdbootstrap.com/support/react/correct-way-to-validate-mdbselect-in-react-form/.
You can add ahandleSubmit
function to the form's button
. In that function, you can check if any value is selected. By default value is Choose your option
, so you can compare selected
value to Choose your option
. If the condition is true
than use e.preventDefault()
so your form will not be submitted and you can show to a user an error message.
handleSubmit = (e) => {
if (this.state.value === 'Choose your option') {
e.preventDefault();
....
}
};
Best regards.
