I have an input that has a FormControl
and I want it to work with :invalid
i.e.
scss
input:invalid {
background-color: red;
}
html
<input type="text" [formControl]="NameCtrl">
but it is not working with it. Although it is working with required
i.e.
input:invalid {
background-color: red;
}
<input type="text" required>
How to decorate input
field with error styles with FormControl
. Any idea, solution, or workaround would be highly appreciated.
CodePudding user response:
Invalid pseudo selector works only for basic HTML validation, for example.
I enter 'hello' as the value for an input field with type as email
then only invalid will work.
more details here for invalid pseudo selector
When dealing with angular :invalid
is pretty useless, instead use the classes inserted by angular form validations, as shown below!
input.ng-invalid.ng-touched {
border: 1px solid red;
}
