feel free to correct my english
I’ve got an eform form with a select box, and no validation rules set up:
<select name="title" id="title"> <option value="">select title</option> <option value="Mr">Mr</option> <option value="Mrs">Mrs</option> </select>
No validation rule should mean when I don’t select a title (ie when ’select title’ is selected) there is no error.
However when I do not select a title it gives the error
title » Incorrect value
What can I do to stop this error? A work-around is to insert value="." for the default option... but I don’t want any value set.

The &format snippet parameter has been obsolete for several versions now... Your making yourself more work then necessary.
@foniksonik: How have you set up your Ajax page? I would think that you could return the eForm page within an Ajax div as HTML or XML (although HTML would probably be easier). You should be able to use the validation placeholder as an XML value, but you could also add &$vMsg and &$rMsg to an event function so that you can check and manipulate the required and validation error messages that way.
