Need to ensure PickList NOT EMPTY (i.e. --None Selected--) in VF Page

Hello. I'm creating a VF page and incorporating a PickList Field from a Custom Object.  I've set the Validation Rule to ensure that the field isn't empty but that only works from within Salesforce. 

 

I need to ensure a value is selected from the PickList when an end user is entering a record through the VisualForce page.

 

FYI: Text fields that are marked as Required DO spawn the appropriate Error Msg if they are left blank.

required="true" attribute on the apex:selectList or apex:inputField. I would use inputField if you can.

Awesome!!  Many thanks, my friend. 

 

Like so much in life the answer was incredibly simple... as long as you knew what it was!  :)

Hi People,

 

Can you give me some idea if we are to make a field mandatory through Visual Force in Standard Page, like in a Lead page or an Opportunity Page. 

 

Regards,

Bharath
