How to submit value of InputSelect without selecting another option - razor

I am making a form to create new products and there is a dropdown that has the default value of "Others" and it shows others
<InputSelect class="form-control" #bind-Value="newproduct.P_Category">
<option value="Others">Others</option>
#foreach (var category in Categories)
{
<option value="#category.Name">#category.Name</option>
}
</InputSelect>
<ValidationMessage For="#(() => newproduct.P_Category)" />
At the start
When I try to submit without changing the value in the inputselect there is an error.
Submitting without changing value
So is there a way for it to submit without needing to change it? Like it would act as a default value.
Submitting after selecting another value and selecting back others
Using Blazor Webassembly App inside a razor file
Edit:
I know this can be easily fixed just by having an empty default value
<InputSelect class="form-control" #bind-Value="newproduct.P_Category">
<option value="">Select</option>
#foreach (var category in Categories)
{
<option value="#category.Name">#category.Name</option>
}
</InputSelect>
<ValidationMessage For="#(() => newproduct.P_Category)" />
But is there any way to just submit the default value without needing to select another option and selecting back the original option?
Edit 2:
This is under an EditForm class

I think what is missing is the selected attribute for the option markup. When you select a value, it puts a selected to identify it. Just add the selected to the Default option.
< option value="Others" selected>Others

How do I reset select and ng-select to first option dynamically

UPDATE ::
https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-tggo2e?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.ts
This stack is basically a TLDR of this post.
UPDATE 2::
Ok basically in that blitz, example 2 works. haha. in my code I was resetting that arr2 in my subscribe after the API call but doing it before the API call fixed it. Now I just have to figure out how to give it that first option (Pick something..) on initial load instead of a blank box.
///////////////////
So basically I have a cascade of select dropdowns. Lets call them form1, form2, form3.
When I select form1, it will call an API using that selection and dynamically give me an array to use for form2 options. same for form3,4,5,etc.
Now this is no problem up to here. But when I have selected form1,2,3 and then I select form1 again, I want form 2 and 3 to reset to my disabled option 1 but I can't seem to be able to get that to happen.
Component.ts
dropdownForm() {
this.dropdownForm = new FormGroup({
form1: new FormControl(),
form2: new FormControl(),
form3: new FormControl(),
form4: new FormControl()
)}
callAPI(query) {
// API CALL
}
changeONE(e) {
// this.arr2 = [];
// reset this.dropdownForm.form2 back to the first option 1('Pick something..) to be 'selected' and 'disabled'
// this.callAPI(e)
}
changeTWO(e) {
// this.arr3 = []
// reset this.dropdownForm.form3
this.callAPI(e)
}
changeTHREE(e) {
// this.arr4 = []
// reset this.dropdownForm.form4 -- this one is ng-select so it is way different than the others.
// this.callAPI(e)
}
HTML
<form [formGroup]="dropdownForm">
<div>
<div>
<label for="form1">Form1</label>
<select id="form1"
(change)="changeONE($event)">
<option [value]="" selected disabled>Pick something..</option>
<option [value]="item" *ngFor="let item of arr">{{item}}</option>
</select>
</div>
<div>
<label for="form2">Form2</label>
<select id="form2"
(change)="changeTWO($event)">
<option [value]="" selected disabled>Pick something..</option>
<option [value]="item" *ngFor="let item of arr2">{{item}}</option>
</select>
</div>
<div>
<label for="form3">Form3</label>
<select id="form3"
(change)="changeTHREE($event)">
<option [value]="" selected disabled>Pick something..</option>
<option [value]="item" *ngFor="let item of arr3">{{item}}</option>
</select>
</div>
<div>
<label for="form4">Form4:</label>
<ng-select [multiple]="true" placeholder="Pick something" (change)="changeFOUR($event)" >
<ng-option *ngFor="let item of arr4">{{item}}</ng-option>
</ng-select>
</div>
I've tried adding formControlname in my selects but that makes the select act weird for some reason... maybe its because my 'new FormControl('')' is wrong? But it makes my form1,2,3 just preselect something random in my optionsArr.
And even then, if i do this.dropdownForm.controls.form1.reset() or something like that, it doesn't do anything. it will just reset the value instead of the resetting the dropdown box(which I'm not even using anyways.. haha. I should be but I'm using using that changeONE() and $event to get the value)
Thank you
EDIT::
I just tried
component.ts
this.dropdownForm.get('form2').reset()
HTML
<select id="form1"
(change)="changeONE($event)" formControlName='form1'>
And basically when I have form1 and form2 selected and I go back and select form1 with that this.dropdownForm.get('form2').reset(), it won't reset form2. Instead, it will select the first item in the new updated arr2 (after i get arr2 from that API call) on the second option of that select instead of going to that disabled option one.

How to set Vue Core UI select value

Sorry for the beginner question, I am new to Vue.js. I am using CoreUI. Documentation/Tutorials on CoreUI+Vue are scarce.
I am using the <CForm> tag and here I have a <CSelect> tag.
<CForm #submit="test" ref="form">
<CSelect
label="Pick a name"
:options="['test', 'test1', 'test2']"
v-model="testy"
/>
<CButton type="submit" size="sm" color="primary"> Submit</CButton>
</CForm>
JavaScript:
methods: {
test(e) {
console.log("test");
debugger;
e.preventDefault();
}
}
When my breakpoint is hit and I inspect this.testy it will not return the value of the select box but instead this:
I was under the impression that putting v-model on my CSelect will expose my select box under this.* and I could somehow easily get the value (?!).
For context this is rendered in the DOM:
<select id="uid-wvkj98yh6gp" class="form-control">
<option data-key="0" value="test"> test </option>
<option data-key="1" value="test1"> test1 </option>
<option data-key="2" value="test2"> test2 </option>
</select>
My question: inside my test(e) method, how can I gather the current selected value of my select box?
In the <CSelect> API docs, it lists the value prop:
value
The value of select input. Set .sync modifier to track prop changes.
It seems they don't use v-model as expected and you probably also got an error about the value prop being incorrect.
Change your select to:
<CSelect
label="Pick a name"
:options="['test', 'test1', 'test2']"
:value.sync="testy"
/>
This way you use the .sync modifier the way the guide directs.

default selected options for multiselect having ng-option in angularjs

<select ng-if="field.Type == 'multi-select'" name="SpecialFields_{{::field.FieldID}}" id="SpecialFields_{{::field.FieldID}}" ng-model="vmpUserObj.specialfields[field.FieldID]" class="form-control" ng-options="item.OptionID as item.OptionLabel for item in ::field.FieldOptions track by item.OptionID" multiple>
</select>
How can i make multiple options selected in this select field . the ng-model will be ["177", "178", "176"]
I got it, it was my silly mistake.
Here each element in the array is a string rather than a number. so i converted the elements to integer and it worked perfectly (converted using stringarray.map(Number);)

AngularJS conditional ng-option

I have an app angular that can be translate both in french and english. I'm using angular translate to do that. The problem is: I receive an array of object from an API and in those object, I have a property bookConditionEn and a property bookConditionFr and other like ids.
In a select input , I want to display bookCondition depending by the current language.
In the controller, I can get the current language with the $translate service
vm.getCurrentLanguage = function() {
return $translate.use();
}
So, I wonder if in the view I could use a condition in the ng-option.
<select
ng-options="bookCondition.BookCondition for bookCondition in bookCtrl.bookConditions"
ng-model="bookCtrl.bookConditions"
name="Condition" class="form-control"
></select>
You can use conditionals to show/hide options by changing the way you are creating the <select>:
<select ng-options=ng-model="bookCtrl.bookConditions" name="Condition" class="form-control">
<option
ng-repeat="bookCondition.BookCondition for bookCondition in bookCtrl.bookConditions"
ng-if="vm.getCurrentLanguage==bookCondition.language"
>
</select>
I didn't quite understand how you have your JSON set up so I am assuming you have a property that contains the language (bookCondition.language). You can compare this against the user's currently-selected language which is returned by your vm.getCurrentLanguage. By the way, I suggest changing that from a function to just be a variable like this:
vm.currentLanguage = $translate.use();
This should be all you need to do to specify options in a conditional manner.
It worked your way
<select ng-model="bookCtrl.bookCondition" name="Condition" class="form-control">
<option ng-if="bookCtrl.getCurrentLanguage() === 'en'" ng-repeat="bookCondition in bookCtrl.bookConditions" value="{{bookCondition}}">{{bookCondition.BookCondition}}</option>
<option ng-if="bookCtrl.getCurrentLanguage() === 'fr'" ng-repeat="bookCondition in bookCtrl.bookConditions" value="{{bookCondition}}">{{bookCondition.BookConditionFr}}</option>
</select>

Not send GET variable on submit if dropwdown not selected

I have a form that I used to filter search results that consist of only dropdowns. I use GET rather then post so that the results can easily be shared with the URL.
<form action="" name='filter' method="GET">
<select name="Make" id="Make">
<option selected="selected" value ="nothing">All</option>
<option value="Toyota">Toyota</option>
<option value="Honda">Honda</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Filter">
</form>
As it is right now if It will submit the value "nothing" for the get variable Make if the user doesn't change the selection. They're are multiple drop downs identical as this one for model year etc.
Is it possible for the Make variable to not show up in the URL if it isn't used?
As it is now if that code is submited it will say website.com/?Make=nothing. I tried removing the value and then it says website.com/?Make=All. I do not want make to show up in the URL if "All" is selected. Is this possible?
You don't have a submit button :)
you can add a JS that runs on submit and checks the value of "Make" and in case it's "nothing" just do a simple redirect instead of submitting the form. Something like:
var e = document.getElementById("Make");
var val = e.options[e.selectedIndex].value;
if (val === 'nothing'){
window.location = "http://www.google.com/"
}
