    <select class="form-item" name="how" eform="how::1">
	<option value="No selection">-No selection-</option>
	<option value="A">Choise A</option>
	<option value="B">Choise B</option>
</select>


    How can I make this field required?
    No error message and even blank option doesn't work. [ed. note: fourroses666 last edited this post 8 years, 9 months ago.]

      Don't know if it will work in your scenario, but it works in mine:
      <select class="form-item" name="how" eform="how:listbox:1">
  <option value="" selected="selected" disabled="disabled">-No selection-</option>
  <option value="A">Choise A</option>
  <option value="B">Choise B</option>
</select>

          looks like it works smiley thought it didn't but was on the end of the error message while it should be as first.

          Anyway thanks smiley
