Topic: Datepicker validation not firing after first snippet / page refresh
Expected behavior
We expect to see an error message (validation message) after clicking "Soumettre" below the datepicker field (Date de naissance).
Actual behavior
No message is shown on that particular field.
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
Warning: Upon opening the snippet, the validation seems to work. After a first refresh (type a character in the HTML box and remove it), it stops working and acts as it does on our website.
See the datepicker field:

Are you able to tell if it's our code or if it's a bug?
Thank you very much! MDB is real great so far.
We found the issue! All we had to do is add .removeAttr('readonly'); to the initialization as described (somewhere) in the documentation.
jQuery('.datepicker').removeAttr('readonly');

Hi there, we've just tested Your snippet but we can't see the issue. Which input is causing the problem?
Best!

You are correct, the snippet doesn't generate the issue anymore since the validation (red Xs) doesn't work at all. I edited the post to provide a link to the target page since it's a public one and the issue is 100% client-side. Hopefully, it's useful while I fiddle the snippet in the next few hours / days. The target field is "birthday"/"date de naissance" (datepicker).

Please let me know here when the snippet will be ready. Best regards!

We're not used to snippets and can't seem to get the snippet to work as the website does. It simply won't trigger the JS Submit which would add the validation error messages next to the fields (except for the birthday which is the problem). If the screenshot and the website URL doesn't provide usable information, we will retry fiddling with the snippet to make it work soonishly.
