TOPIC: How do I validate a drop down menu in RSForm!Pro?

How do I validate a drop down menu in RSForm!Pro? 12 years 1 month ago #22231

I created a form in RSFormPro with a dropdown menu. The first item on the drop down menu says "pick one". Using RSFormPro, how do I validate the form when the user clicks "submit" to make sure they picked an item from my drop down menu other than "pick one"? Thanks.

I found a similar question in this forum (see link) but the answer didn't work.

To achieve this, you need to:

1) define the 'pick one' item without setting a value for it, as in the following example:

|pick one

2) set the field to be 'Required'.

In this way, the field will be invalidated if 'pick one' remains selected, as the item has no value set.
