Basic Usage

<uni-select-field /> is a web component. All we need to do is put the required script into your HTML document. Then follow <uni-select-field />'s html structure and everything will be all set.

Required Script

<script type="module" src="https://unpkg.com/uni-select-field/mjs/wc-uni-select-field.js"> </script>

Structure

Put <uni-select-field /> into HTML document. It will have different functions and looks with attribute mutation.

<uni-select-field subject="Subject" message="Supporting text"> <select slot="select" name="my-select" required > <option value="" disabled selected>Please select</option> <hr /> <option value="first">First Value</option> <option value="second">Second Value</option> <option value="third">Third Value</option> <option value="third">Fourth Value (make it longer)</option> </select> </uni-select-field>

<uni-select-field /> dynamically adjusts its user interface and core functionality by strictly adhering to the attributes of the encapsulated select element. Developers can leverage these capabilities and observe the corresponding behavioral shifts by modifying standard attributes—such as disabled, and required—directly on the select element.

<uni-select-field> <select slot="select" name="my-select" required > <option value="" disabled selected>Please select</option> <hr /> <option value="first">First Value</option> <option value="second">Second Value</option> <option value="third">Third Value</option> <option value="third">Fourth Value (make it longer)</option> </select> </uni-select-field>
