The read-only valid
property of the ValidityState
interface indicates if the value of an <input>
element meets all its validation constraints, and is therefore considered to be valid.
If true
, the element matches the :valid
CSS pseudo-class; otherwise the :invalid
CSS pseudo-class applies.
A boolean that is true
if the ValidityState
does conform to all the constraints.
The following example checks the validity of a numeric input element. A constraint has been added using the min
attribute which sets a minimum value of 18
for the input. If the user enters any value that's not a number greater than 17, the element fails constraint validation, and the styles matching input:invalid
are applied.
input:invalid {
outline: red solid 3px;
}
input:valid {
outline: palegreen solid 3px;
}
body {
margin: 0.5rem;
}
pre {
padding: 1rem;
height: 2rem;
background-color: lightgrey;
outline: 1px solid grey;
}
<pre id="log">Validation logged here...</pre>
<input type="number" id="age" min="18" required />
const userInput = document.getElementById("age");
const logElement = document.getElementById("log");
function log(text) {
logElement.innerText = text;
}
userInput.addEventListener("input", () => {
userInput.reportValidity();
if (userInput.validity.valid) {
log("Input OKâ¦");
} else {
log("Bad input detectedâ¦");
}
});
