How to Display Validation Message for Radio Buttons with Inline Images using Bootstrap 4 ?

By Default, Bootstrap 4 has various form features for radio buttons with images inline. Here HTML 5 has default validation features, However, for custom validation, we must use JavaScript or jQuery. The following approaches would help in the display validation message for radio buttons with images inline.

Approach 1: First wrap Radio buttons and its label by using form-check-inline class. Then add img tag within the above wrap after label tag. Use default required validation by adding required attribute of radio button. Finally, display message using alert class and trigger it with jQueries attr(), addClass() and html() methods only if radio button not checked.

Example: The below program illustrates to display validation message for radio buttons with images inline based on the the above approach.

            <div class="form-check form-check-inline"> 
                <input class="form-check-input"
                        type="radio"
                        name="inlineRadioOptions"
                        id="inlineRadio2"
                        value="option2" required> 
                <label class="form-check-label"
                                for="inlineRadio2">

                            class= 
"rounded-circle rounded-sm img-fluid img-thumbnail"> 
                </label> 
            </div> 
            <br> 
              
            <div class="form-check form-check-inline"> 
                <input type="submit"
                        class="form-control mt-3 "
                        value="Submit"
                        name="submit"
                        id="checked" /> 
            </div> 
        </form> 
          
        <br><br> 
          
        <span id="msg"></span> 
    </div> 
      
    <script> 
      
        // On clicking submit do following 
        $("input[type=submit]").click(function() { 
              
            var atLeastOneChecked = false; 
            $("input[type=radio]").each(function() { 
              
                // If radio button not checked 
                // display alert message  
                if ($(this).attr("checked") != "checked") { 
                  
                    // Alert message by displaying 
                    // error message 
                    $("#msg").html( 
        "<span class='alert alert-danger' id='error'>" 
        + "Please Choose atleast one</span>"); 
                } 
            }); 
        }); 
    </script> 
</body> 
  
</html> 

Output:

Approach 2: Wrap the radio buttons along with img tag for inline by using form-inline and input-group class. Then display message using alert class and trigger it with jQuery attr(), addClass() and html() methods only if radio button not checked. Finally, get checked values using jQuery val() function and concatenate it with Bootstrap alert component to display message for successful/failure of form submission. Also, use preventDefault() function to prevent form reset after submission because to display successful/failure message of submission. Don’t forget to add img tag within the above wrap after label tag.

Note: Run this code in wider window.
