   After a bit debugging it seems this issue only occurs if you use the validation directives not directly on a input html element. I have a custom directive for input fields (including label, input elements and some other stuff) and I'm using the validation directive on my directive instead of the input field.

   Supporting this could be achieved by something like this:

   try {
       return element[0].select ? element[0].select() : element.find('input')[0].select();
   } catch(_error) {
       console.warn('Error trying to select element ', _error.message, element);
   }

   Thanks @cougar2010
   Had a little bug in your code. Fixed it for my case. I'm using the selectize control

   try {
       return element[0].select ? element[0].select() : element.parent().children().find('input')[0].select();
   } 
   catch (_error)  {
       console.warn('Error trying to select element ', _error.message, element);
   }
