I have a modal window with three dropdowns. All these fields are specified as class=“required” in jsp. All these three are mandatory fields. When I try to save the modal window without entering value ,it thorws error as “Field Required” only for the first dropdown.
The other two drop down does not show the error message. Please advise.
Assuming you are using the browser’s built-in form validation, you need to set the required attribute on your <select> elements (for example, <select id="..." required>, not a class named ‘required’, which the browser does not understand.
If you could provide some sample code (on jsfiddle.net or codepen.io) showing how this is failing, I might be able to provide more guidance.

<option value="criterion"></option>
</select>
<label for="ecriterion"><spring:message code="label.criterion" /><i
class="asterisk material-icons red-text darken-2">flare</i></label>
<input id="e_ocritCode" type="hidden"
name="eitCriterion" value=${editItemForm.eitCriterion}>
</div>
</div>

After removing “class” (retaining “required”) and adding a name to each of the select components it works fine. Thank you for your help.
