Dashboard
Browser Default
Depending on your browser and OS, you’ll see a slightly different style of feedback.
Custom styles
For custom Bootstrap form validation messages, you’ll need to add the
novalidate
boolean attribute to your <form>
. This disables
the browser default feedback tooltips, but still provides access to the form validation APIs
in JavaScript. When attempting to submit, you’ll see the :invalid
and
:valid
styles applied to your form controls.
Server side
We recommend using client-side validation, but in case you require
server-side validation, you can indicate invalid and valid form fields with
.is-invalid
and .is-valid
. Note that
.invalid-feedback
is also supported with these classes.
Supported elements
Validation styles are available for the following form controls and components:
<input>
s and<textarea>
s with.form-control
(including up to one.form-control
in input groups)<select>
s with.form-select
.form-check
s
Tooltips
If your form layout allows it, you can swap the
.{valid|invalid}-feedback
classes for .{valid|invalid}-tooltip
classes to display validation feedback in a styled tooltip. Be sure to have a parent with
position: relative
on it for tooltip positioning. In the example below, our
column classes have this already, but your project may require an alternative setup.
