I'm trying to create an error message on my textbox and dropdown questions where when I click next to go to the next page it shows an error message that these are required so I must enter something before going to the next page.
component.html
<div class="container tb-10">
<form>
<div>
<div class="row">
<h4>TANF - Temporary Assistance to Needy Families:</h4>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Please name the person (whether you or a member of your household) who receives food stamps, and city and state where they are received.</label>
<div>
Person Receiving Benefits: <input type="text" class="form-control" name="tanf_beneficiary" id="tanf_beneficiary" required placeholder="Person Receiving Benefits" >
</div>
<div>
Relationship to you: <input type="text" class="form-control" name="tanf_relationship" id="tanf_relationship" required placeholder="Relationship to you" >
</div>
<div>
City: <input type="text" class="form-control" name="tanf_city" id="tanf_city" required placeholder="City" >
</div>
<div>
<label for="state" class="form-label">State:</label>
<select class="form-select" value="" aria-label="State" id="state">
<option selected>Select State...</option>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<footer>
<button id="exit" class="btn btn-danger pull-left" >Exit</button>
<button id="submitform" type="submit" class="btn btn-primary pull-right" routerLink="/unemployed"> Next </button>
</footer>
</form>
component.ts
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-tanf-benefits',
templateUrl: './tanf-benefits.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./tanf-benefits.component.css']
})
export class TanfBenefitsComponent {
}
There are various ways to handle forms in Angular. I am sharing a simple way as per your requirement. I have not used the material library since in your example you used simple controls. Here is a code sample I created
We use formGroup to handle form submission and error handling.
