SOLVED::form sending but there's no validation...

Hi,

I’m sure i’ve done something wrong here...i’m not sure where to add any validation to eform. I understand that the [+validationmessage+] will display the validaion message but i can’t see where to make the inputs manadatory.
as an example..


..do i add &requiredClass somewhere on the form to make a mandatory field?

Thanks for any help

You need to add the custom eform attribute to the field (don’t worry about validation, the attribute is removed when eForm processes the form template)


The eForm documentation goes into a lot more detail about using the field attribute, but basically it’s eform="Field Label:expected data type:required (0 or 1)". The Field Label will be what is used in the invalid error message; the expected data type can be left blank if it’s plain text or a few other type (again, the documentation goes into more detail); the required part is 1 for required, 0 for not required. Even if the field is not required, you still need the eform attribute if you want this field to be available as a placeholder (in the report template, for example).
