anil kumar devunoori How to make a selectlist field on visualforce page required and behave similar to object field?
I need to add a selectlist on the vf page which has less number of picklist values than actual picklist on the object. I need to make the selectlist required and when the value is not selected the error message should display just below the select list as displayed for object fields.
