Summary15615: Mandatory multiple choice questions are not assigned a red background if not being answered
Description

When not answering a mandatory array question and clicking next, the not answered question gets highligjted with a red border, see screenshots.
For multiple choice questions, this highlighting is missing, see screenshot. Only the default warning text is there.

Steps To Reproduce

Import the attached survey.
Click next at the first question page -> the array question gets a red border.
Answer the array question and click next.
At the following mukltiple choice question click next -> the default warning text appears but the red border is missing.

Additional Information

This seems to be a general issue since it shows up at fruity and vanilla template.

The multiple choice question is missing CSS class "input-error" which gets assigned to not answered mandatory questions and comes with the CSS for the red border.

I see 2 problems here.

1) This is general, not ony for checkboxes.
If a certain question has a specific validation and also is mandatory, the shade will not appear.
This is because the shade related to the "mandatory" validation is cleared by the other valdation being satisfied.

2) This is not only for mandatory validation.
If a question has 2 validations. The shade will only appear if the last one is the one failing.

Suggestions:

  • Review JS for shade. It is triggered now on an event for a tip. Should be triggered at the end, after all validations are done. That should solve problem #2.

  • Still, it will not solve problem #1.

    • Shade show/hide is recalculated at client side.
    • Mandatory validation is recalculated at server side.
    • As to solve that, we should implement mandatory validation on client side.

Comments? @DenisChenu @ollehar

My own opinion :

  1. I don't like the core system with same css class after and before submit … in 2.6 input-error are set ONLY when try to submit. In SkelVanilla : i use same system
  2. mandatory are not checked with javascript, then input-error are not removed when answer is done see inputerror-butOK picture
  3. You can't really compare mandatory in array and mandatory in multiple : we have a count(self) > 0 and count(self) == number of subquestion (see lss)

Then : my opinion

  1. Remove the input-error update by JS. It's awfull to have it when came at a page for the 1st time for user.
  2. The js update have other issue whe you disable hide-tip
  3. Move mandatory to Expression Manager systyem : then have it like the other validation (tip-mandatory etc ) : this one is a bigger step (and maybe for 5.X)

Yes moving mandatory to expression manager is a great thing to do BUT : it's not a little fix ;)

PR: https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/pull/1577

Added new event handler for question-container, to evaluat status of its tips and then add/remove the error class

This will not prevent problem #1 said here.
https://bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=15615#c59164

Neither it will prevent validations to be trigered at the ver begining when the form is still empty (clean).
If user hasn't inputed anything, why validations already appear?

I think both shuld be handled on separates stories.
@cdorin What do you think? @DenisChenu? @ollehar?

It's a template issue in my opinion. In fact : i leave validation BUT add the border only when submitted (PHP) …
