Bug 80419

Created attachment 130380 [details] form with select element containing 'required' attribute for testing Detected on Harmattan N9 and iPhone 4S and Safari 5.1.2 (7534.52.7) on Win7 STEPS LEADING TO PROBLEM AND OUTCOME: 1. load attached file selectRequiredTesting.html 2. ensure that none of the options are marked in the select element 3. attempt to submit the form using the Submit button 4. ERROR: the form submission completes EXPECTED OUTCOME: The presence of the 'required' attribute on the select element in the form should cause the browser to ensure that the 'value' of the select element is defined before form submission. Ideally it would abort the submit and trigger an alert indicating the select element[s] with 'required' attribute set and select 'value' undefined so that the user could correct the omission. This feature is a lightweight method of enforcing user input rules and should be supported as defined in the html5 specification: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#attr-select-required
