ng-class validation is not working in AngularJS

Manoj picture Manoj · Jul 21, 2016 · Viewed 10.8k times · Source

I tried to put green background if it is edited and valid.

But, even for invalid also it is showing green background. On invalid it should show the yellow background with red text.

Thanks in advance for giving me the solution.

html

<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="formCtrl">

    <form name="inputform">
        <div ng-class="{'has-success': inputform.email.$dirty && inputform.email.$valid, 'has-error': inputform.email.$dirty && inputform.email.$invalid}">
            <label for="exampleInputEmail1">Email</label>
            <input type="text" name="email" ng-model="data.email" id="exampleInputEmail1" />
        </div>
    </form>

    {{data}}

</div>

javascript

var module = angular.module("myApp", []);

module.controller("formCtrl", ['$scope', function($scope){

    $scope.data = {};

}]);

css

.has-error {
    color: red;
    background-color: red;
}

.has-success {
    color: black;
    background-color: green;
}

There is no validation applied to that input element so it is valid all the time. Try the below form, I've applied the required and email validation:

(It will only be green if a proper email address in entered)

var module = angular.module("myApp", []);

module.controller("formCtrl", ['$scope', function($scope){

    $scope.data = {};

}]);
.has-error {
    color: red;
    background-color: red;
}

.has-success {
    color: black;
    background-color: green;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script>

<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="formCtrl">

    <form name="inputform">
        <div ng-class="{'has-success': inputform.email.$valid, 'has-error': inputform.email.$invalid}">
            <label for="exampleInputEmail1">Email</label>
            <input type="email" name="email" required ng-model="data.email" id="exampleInputEmail1" />
        </div>
    </form>

    {{data}}

</div>

Alternatively, you can use this library to provide Bootstrap form validation in simple way.
