validating a drop down menu

Featured Replies

I've got all text fields validating on a form but the drop down menu isn't validating. Is there a simple way to do this in dreamweaver? Its important people select an option from the list.

 

Thanks guys

I don't know dreamweaver, but something like this should work.

 

function valDrop(val) {
if (val == '') return false;
else return true;
}

 

<option value=""></option>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
<option value="">This is not valid</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>

 

whatever options have value="" will not validate (So the first and fourth in that above example).
