Hello,

How can I validate a select drop-down. The following select won't validate, it will always return true when null.

      <select class="mdb-select md-form md-outline colorful-select dropdown-primary" 
      required
      id="g_type" 
      name="g_type">

        <option value="" disabled selected>Request Type:</option>
        <option value="Interpretation">Interpretation</option>
        <option value="Translation">Translation</option>

        </select>


        <label class="mdb-main-label">Request Type</label>
        </div>

enter image description here
