Foundation plugin
Integrate with the Foundation framework
Usage
The following piece of code is the starting point to validate the form made in Foundation:
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/foundation/6.5.3/css/foundation.min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/vendors/formvalidation/dist/css/formValidation.min.css" />
</head>
<body>
<form id="demoForm" method="POST">...</form>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/es6-shim/0.35.3/es6-shim.min.js"></script>
<script src="/vendors/formvalidation/dist/js/FormValidation.min.js"></script>
<script src="/vendors/formvalidation/dist/js/plugins/Foundation.min.js"></script>
<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(e) {
FormValidation.formValidation(
document.getElementById('demoForm'),
{
fields: {
...
},
plugins: {
foundation: new FormValidation.plugins.Foundation(),
...
},
}
);
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
There are some important things here:
- The sample code above assumes that the FormValidation files are placed inside the
vendors
directory. You might need to change the path depending on where you place them on the server. Foundation.min.js
is the plugin provided by FormValidation. It is NOT the same as Foundation(.min).js
file provided by the Foundation framework.
The next sections list out some examples of various forms made with Foundation.
Horizontal form
Stacked form
You need to add the fv-stacked-form
class to the form
element such as:
<form class="fv-stacked-form">
...
</form>
Multiple fields on the same row
In order to add the correct class for error message and the field element when it is a valid or invalid, we need to specify the CSS selector of the field container.
By default, the Foundation plugin will look for the .grid-x
element. In the following example, the firstName
and lastName
fields are placed inside .small-4
containers. Meanwhile, the city
, state
and zipcode
fields can be found inside the .small-3
containers.
The rowSelector
option will be used to help the plugin determine the field containers as following:
foundation: new FormValidation.plugins.Foundation({
rowSelector: function(field, ele) {
switch (field) {
case 'firstName':
case 'lastName':
return '.small-4';
case 'city':
case 'state':
case 'zipcode':
return '.small-3';
default:
return '.form-group';
}
}
}),
Multiple fields on the same row
