The setCustomValidity()
method of the HTMLOutputElement
interface sets the custom validity message for the <output>
element. Use the empty string to indicate that the element does not have a custom validity error.
The <output>
element is not a candidate for constraint validation. The reportValidity()
method will not cause the custom error message to be displayed to the user, but does set the customError
property of the element's ValidityState
object to true
and the valid
property to false
.
setCustomValidity(string)
Parameters
string
The string containing the error message. The empty string removes any custom validity errors.
None (undefined
).
In this example, if the <output>
's value
is not a non-zero number, we set a custom error message. If it is a number, we set the custom error to an empty string:
const cart = document.getElementById("cart-form");
const total = cart.elements("total");
if (parseFloat(total.value)) {
errorOutput.setCustomValidity("");
} else {
errorOutput.setCustomValidity("There is an error");
}
