ng-model invalid when multiple="multiple"

[binarykitchen]

I have an input field here which allows multiple email addresses

input(name="to",   type="email", data-ng-model="videomail.to", data-ng-change="validate()", data-ng-focus="showDock2To = true", data-ng-blur="showDock2To = false", placeholder="To (recipient email addresses)", required="required", autocomplete="on", multiple="multiple")

but when i enter two email addresses, separated with commas, the angular model holds one email address only. it should leave them untouched.

There's currently no support in angular for the multiple attribute.

There's an open issue for it here #6032 and an outdated PR here https://github.com/angular/angular.js/pull/4233/files. You can voice your demand for this in the issue, or even better submit your own PR for it (based on how ngList works)!

Oh no - I am not confident enough to submit an AngularJS PR. But tell me, how come the PR hasn't been merged yet?

[Narretz]

The PR didn't get a lot of attention, unfortunately. Looking at it, it should probably also work like ngList: extracting the listed inputs based on a delimiter and putting them into an array.

[binarykitchen]

Hmm, do you think you could do it? That would be much, much appreciated :)

I can't guarantee it. :) I'm gonna close this for now, let's centralize the discussion in #6032
