Client side validation on dropdown list

Hi 


I am trying to do a client side validation on a dropdownlist using the HTMLAttribute tag, but its not kicking in when I click submit button in my editform. Please see code below.


  <SfDropDownList FloatLabelType="FloatLabelType.Auto" TValue="string" TItem="LookupModel" Placeholder="Select PoC Country" DataSource="@ddlLookup_PocCountries" HtmlAttributes="@(new Dictionary<string,object>(){{"required", "true" } })" @bind-Value="_model.ClientPoCCountry" >

         <DropDownListFieldSettings Value="Value" Text="Text"></DropDownListFieldSettings>

  </SfDropDownList>


Please advise?

Hi Andrew, 

We will validate the requirement in our component. We will update you in two business days (February 7th, 2022).

We have prepared the sample with client-side validation.  
 
Find the code example here: 
@inject IJSRuntime JS 
 
 
<body> 
    <div class="stackblitz-container material"> 
        <div class="control-section col-lg-12"> 
            <div id="local-data" class="col-lg-6" style="padding-top: 15px"> 
                <div class="content"> 
                    <form action="" name="registration"> 
                        <div> 
                              
                            <SfTextBox HtmlAttributes="@htmlattr1"></SfTextBox> 
                             
                            <span class="error1" style="width:250px;"></span> 
                        </div> 
                        <div> 
                            <SfDropDownList TItem="GameFields" TValue="string" HtmlAttributes="@htmlattr" PopupHeight="230px" Placeholder="Select a game" DataSource="@Games"> 
                                <DropDownListEvents TItem="GameFields" TValue="string" ValueChange="OnChange"></DropDownListEvents> 
                                <DropDownListFieldSettings Text="Text" Value="ID"></DropDownListFieldSettings> 
                            </SfDropDownList> 
                            <span class="error2" style="width:250px;"></span> 
                        </div> 
                        <input type="submit" value="submit" /> 
                    </form> 
                </div> 
            </div> 
        </div> 
    </div> 
</body> 
 
@code{ 
 
    protected override async Task OnAfterRenderAsync(bool firstRender) 
    { 
        await JS.InvokeAsync<string>("validation"); 
 
    } 
 
    private string textValue { get; set; } 
    public class GameFields 
    { 
        public string ID { get; set; } 
        public string Text { get; set; } 
    } 
    private List<GameFields> Games = new List<GameFields>() { 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game1", Text= "American Football" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game2", Text= "Badminton" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game3", Text= "Basketball" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game4", Text= "Cricket" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game5", Text= "Football" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game6", Text= "Golf" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game7", Text= "Hockey" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game8", Text= "Rugby"}, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game9", Text= "Snooker" }, 
        new GameFields(){ ID= "Game10", Text= "Tennis"}, 
     }; 
    public string DropVal = "Game3"; 
    public string ChangeValue { get; set; } = "Basketball"; 
    public void OnChange(Syncfusion.Blazor.DropDowns.ChangeEventArgs<string, GameFields> args) 
    { 
        this.ChangeValue = args.ItemData.Text; 
    } 
 
    Dictionary<string, object> htmlattr1 = new Dictionary<string, object>() { { "name", "firstname" }, { "id", "firstname" } }; 
 
 
    Dictionary<string, object> htmlattr = new Dictionary<string, object>() { { "name", "games" }, { "id", "games" } }; 
} 
 
 
Validation code [javascript.js] 
function validation() { 
 
    $(function() { 
        $("form[name='registration']").validate({ 
 
            rules: { 
 
                firstname: "required", 
                games: "required", 
            }, 
            errorPlacement: function (error, element) { 
                error.appendTo(element.parent().siblings()[0]); 
 
            }, 
 
            submitHandler: function (form) { 
                form.submit(); 
            } 
        }); 
    }); 
};
