That’s a good idea. Yes, I would recommend that instead.

You could use JavaScript to detect whether or not the browser supports the required attribute, if it doesn’t, then enable the JS form validation.

var supported = "required" in element; if(!supported) { enableFormValidation(); }

Downsides of HTML ‘required’: some browsers may not support HTML5 yet. Downsides of JavaScript validation: some users may have JavaScript disabled in their browser settings. I would recommend the HTML ‘required’ attribute, because it’s much easier.

if I use both, is it better for example if the browser does not support html5, it will be replaced by JavaScript or vice versa
