Oracle Application Express 5: Developing Web Applications — Question 47

John has a form page with an email item and a status item.
What must John do to ensure that the email item is populated before users can enter any value into the status item on the form page?

Answer options

• A. dynamic action on the email item
• B. validation on the email item
• C. plug-in for the status item
• D. server-side condition on the status item

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because validation ensures that the email field is populated before any interaction with the status field can occur. Options A, C, and D do not enforce the requirement for the email field to be filled out first, thereby allowing users to potentially skip entering an email before accessing the status field.
