"required" property use in tag is work correctly at chrome and firefox, but not in IE8 browser

in gsp file code:

how can I let the require tag work success in IE8 and chrome or other browsers?

Solution

  • The required attribute of a form element is HTML5 which is not supported by older browsers such as IE8. This is not a limitation of Grails it's a limitation of the older browser.

    You can read more about this attribute on w3schools. There you will also find the following compliance note.

    Note: The required attribute of the tag is not supported in Internet Explorer 9 and earlier versions, or in Safari.
