I am currently in the process of validating some inputs within a modal:
<div id="modal-section" class="modal fade bd-example-modal-lg" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog modal-lg">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h3 class="modal-title">Manage</h3>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">
<i class="tim-icons icon-simple-remove"></i>
</button>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<div class="modal-message alert" style="display:none"></div>
<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>Details</legend>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="control-label">name</label>
<input type="text" class="required form-control black-content">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</fieldset>
<fieldset>
<legend>
Informations
</legend>
<div id="questions-container">
<div class="card" data-id="1">
<div class="card-body">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-8">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="question-name" class="control-label">description *</label>
<input type="text" class="required form-control" data-id="1">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</fieldset>
</form>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" id="validate" class="btn btn-primary">save</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Upon clicking the validate button, the following function will activate:
var missingRequired = false;
$('#modal-section .required').each(function () {
$(this).closest('.form-group').removeClass('has-error');
if ($(this).val() == '' || $(this).val() == undefined) {
$(this).closest('.form-group').addClass('has-error');
missingRequired = true;
}
});
This function essentially examines all inputs with the required class; only the name input will turn red, while others in the questions-container will not.
Upon inspecting the HTML, it appears that the class has-error is also being added to the inputs in the questions-container, yet they are not changing color.
The CSS properties on the element include:
Theme class:
.white-content .card:not(.card-white) label:not(.btn) {
color: #344675;
}
Bootstrap class (commented within the question-container element)
.has-error .form-control-feedback, .has-error .control-label {
color: #ec250d;
}
What could be the reason behind this behavior?
