I have a series of questions which have radio answer choices. I can't figure out how to use AngularJS validation to require the user to select one before clicking "Next". Below is my code:
EDIT: Please note that clicking "Next" gets the next question node from the controller depending on what choice was made. It's basically a dynamic questionnaire.
<form novalidate>
<div class="radio" ng-repeat="answer in node.Answers">
<input type="radio" name="answerGroup" ng-model="$parent.selectedAnswer"
value="{{answer.BranchId}},{{node.LeafId}},{{answer.Id}}"/> {{answer.Text}}
</div>
<div>
<input type="button" ng-click="previous()" value="Previous"/>
<input type="button" ng-click="next(selectedAnswer)" value="Next"/>
</div>
</form>
Radio buttons are normally presented in radio groups (a collection of radio buttons describing a set of related options). Only one radio button in a group can be selected at the same time. Note: The radio group must have share the same name (the value of the name attribute) to be treated as a group.
Look below, using ng-show to display an error message should neither radio button be clicked.
<label for="dateofbirth">
<span>Are you the primary cardholder?</span>
</label>
<ul>
<li>
<label for="yes">
<input type="radio" id="yes" name="cardholder" ng-model="user.cardholder" value="yes" required/>
Yes
</label>
</li>
<li>
<label for="no">
<input type="radio" id="no" name="cardholder" ng-model="user.cardholder" value="no" required/>
No
</label>
</li>
</ul>
</fieldset>
<span class="error" ng-show="myForm.cardholder.$error.required && submitted == true"><i class="fa fa-exclamation-circle"></i>Please select an answer.</span>
EDIT: Here is a working fiddle
First give the form a name so that you can refer to it:
<form name="myForm" novalidate>
Next add the required
attribute to the radio button:
<input type="radio" name="answerGroup" required
ng-model="$parent.selectedAnswer"
value="{{answer.BranchId}},{{node.LeafId}},{{answer.Id}}"/>
Then use ng-disabled
to bind your next
button's disabled
property to the validity of the radio button:
<input type="button" ng-click="next(selectedAnswer)" value="Next"
ng-disabled="myform.answerGroup.$invalid" />
