## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
You can require specific form fields so that your user will not be able to submit your form until he or she has filled them out.
|
|
For example, if you wanted to make a text input field required, you can just add the attribute <code>required</code> within your <code>input</code> element, like this: <code><input type="text" required></code>
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
<section id='instructions'>
|
|
Make your text <code>input</code> a <code>required</code> field, so that your user can't submit the form without completing this field.
|
|
Then try to submit the form without inputting any text. See how your HTML5 form notifies you that the field is required?
