Info

The show() and hide() methods can also be used to control the visibility of the time component in response to user input.
Fields refers to a component ID or a list of component IDs. You can fetch the ID from the Component Attribute panel in the Page Builder.
Before using this.show(fields), make sure the component is hidden. This can be done using this.hide(fields) or by enabling the Hidden checkbox in the Component Attribute panel.
Before using this.enable(fields), make sure the component is disabled. This can be done using this.disable(fields) or by enabling the Disabled checkbox in the Component Attribute panel.

- Follow the steps mentioned above, under Steps to use the methods for the Page Builder components
- this.addClassName('time_16of90m8', 'abc')

this.removeClassName(fields, className)

this.removeClassName('time_16of90m8', 'abc')

this.hide(fields)

var fields= ['time_16of90m8']
this.hide(fields)

this.show(fields)

var fields= ['time_16of90m8']
this.show(fields)

this.disable(['fields'])
```
this.disable(['time_16of90m8'])
```
this.enable(['fields'])
```
this.enable(['time_16of90m8'])
```

Validation¶

Form validation is the process of checking the data entered into a form to ensure that it's valid and complete.

This helps to prevent users from submitting forms with invalid data, which can cause problems for the application that's processing the form.

Form validation can be performed using a variety of methods, including:

Name	Description
Required	If enabled, then the field value can't be empty, otherwise an error message is emitted
Custom Validation Rules	(rule, value, callback) => {
	rule: Verification rule, you can view the verification configuration information through this parameter; rule.field can get the field identifier of the current verification.
	value: Value of the current field
	callback: Callback function (must be called) upon completion of validation; callback('Error message')/ callback(new Error('Error message')). These are two ways to return an error message.

Info

The callback() function is also called to verify success in the custom validation method.
