When creating dropdown boxes, is there a way to make the initial field blank, so that the user is obliged to scroll and make a selection?
I've made a form with dropdowns, but if the user forgets to select an item the form is still sent as if he/she had selected something.
Thanks a lot.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
when inputting the options for the drop down menu, add an extra option at the top that says something like *select from the following options* . That should do what you are trying to.

I've done that, but if the user forgets to make a selection the *select from following options* item is validated and the form is sent. So the feedback I get, for example, is:
Name: John Smith
Country: select from following options
Is there some way I can configure it so that the user has to go back and make a valid selection from the dropdown box with the list of countries?
Thanks
