I have a html dropdown which is sourcing data from an api, the api returns an array of objects [in the component]. The Dropdown uses a field value which is in most objects, but not all.
So it causes, some fields entries to show blank in the dropdown.
<div class="col-sm-5">
<label>DropDown<label class="field-importance" style="padding-left: 14rem">Required</label></label>
<select formControlName="Entry" placeholder="Select Entry" required>
<option value="null" disabled="true" [selected]="true" [hidden]="true">Select Entry</option>
<option *ngFor="let e of entry" [value]="e.val">{{e.val}}</option>
</select>
</div>
Thank you soo much
You could do a *ngIf
check for val
property before using it. Try the following
<div class="col-sm-5">
<label>DropDown<label class="field-importance" style="padding-left: 14rem">Required</label></label>
<select formControlName="Entry" placeholder="Select Entry" required>
<option value="null" disabled="true" [selected]="true" [hidden]="true">Select Entry</option>
<ng-container *ngFor="let e of entry">
<ng-container *ngIf="e.val">
<option [value]="e.val">{{e.val}}</option>
</ng-container>
</ng-container>
</select>
</div>
