I have been playing around this and couldnt get it to work. I was creating an angular form and I was able to get the validation to work when required
attribute is added to the text field. However, if a input type file
is added with required
attribution, I noticed that the $error.required
text is shown but it doesnt validation even if a file is chosen. Its still showing as invalid even after adding a file. I have created a sample in jsfiddle so you can check this out: http://jsfiddle.net/Alien_time/kxSaz/6/
Doesnt validation work for file inputs? How can I add a required option and validate it when using file select?
