ReactJS Validator Component
The Validator component for React represents a jQWidgets plugin used for validating html forms using JavaScript.
Prerequisites
Refer to React Getting Started before you start with this help topic.
Configuration
The Validator component for React requires the following imports.

This is done in the componentDidMount() React Component Lifecycle method.
Events
The validationSuccess event is triggered when the user selects an item.
The following example demonstrates how to add an event listener:
Methods & Properties
This is how you call methods & props:
Every component have a method setOptions which accepts a object as an argument. This object contains component settings.
Every component also have a method getOptions which returns a object containing the component settings.
