The forms supports enables you to validate input values and prevent the submission of forms which are in an invalid state.

Enforcing the Validity State

The DropDownList enables you to set its validity state by utilizing its exposed props. Setting the validity state allows for the implementation of complex validation scenarios that are based on multiple sources. To override the current validity state and apply the corresponding styles, use the valid prop.

Disabling the Validation Styling

By default, to achieve a visual representation of its invalid state, the DropDownList applies the k-invalid class name to the wrapping component. To disable the utilization of k-invalid, set the validity-styles property to false.
