I would like to know if it's possible to bypass the validation of one property which is using Data Annotations. Since I use the model across multiple pages, there's a check I need in some, but not in others, so I would like it to be ignored.
View 2 RepliesI make use of validation with data annotations in my model classes. How do I make sure this annotations are not violated when I validate data in my business layer, before sending it to the DAL? I guess I don't want to define the validation rules in two places (model classes and in my BLL-classes)?
View 6 RepliesDefined RegisterModel class - with some validation rules for creating new users, and this works fine.
Then I get this class, strip few properties and wanted to reuse it as UserInfo_Form_Model, for editing user properites.
No changes, just deleted few items, renamed and reused in strongly typed View for editing.
And result of validation is: -
[DisplayName("Name")] works fine, showing correct
[StringLength(20, ErrorMessage = "xxxx...")] - not working, no message showed when suppose to be one
[Required(ErrorMessage = "xxxx.")] - not working, not showing messages when delete required values?
but (ModelState.IsValid) is false when I checked it in controller (it had to be because required value is missing)?
Is it this only partially correct and how this can be?
Well this is a bit frustrating because it cant be simpler than this and I cant make this simple code reuse.
If I have a search object with a list of fields, can I, using the System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations namespace, set it up to validate that at least one of the fields in the search is not null or empty? i.e All the fields are optional but at least one should always be entered.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to make some sense of this validation stuff in MVC2. I followed various walkthroughs, all them for betas/rcs... and I cant' get anythign to happen. Note: THIS JQUERY - NOT THE MS AJAX STUFF!I have referenced MicrosoftMvcJQueryValidation.js which i got got the mvc2 futures lib.
My model is:
[Code]....
The form bit of my ViewPage<User>:
[Code]....
As far as I can see the only additional thing that is being rendered is this:
[Code]....
Which is interesting/annoying for a few reasons. Firstly all of my annotations appear to have been ignored.Secondly FormId isn't even marked as required, and as this rendered text was taken from a page loaded with a null Model (add mode) the FormId field isn't in the form. Finally, this doesn't even result in any actual validation occuring (on the client side). All the server side validation is working fine.See I am using PasswordFor instead of EditorFor. Because someone at MS testing dropped the ball there. Yes EditorFor renders a password field, but it behaves differently to PasswordFor.. the value of the Password field is sent to the client (set in the value
attribute of the field). Fail.
I'm creating a Asp.Net MVC application and I need help on whether I should chose Data Annotations or Service Layer Validation (e.g. if(Model.Name.Trim().Length == 0)?

Interestingly, when I trigger a validation on the first textbox, it fires simultaneously for all of the textboxes. The rest of the textboxes do not trigger validation at all.
Looking at the generated id and names for the textboxes and their corresponding error text span element, they areall identical.
Anyone figure out how to use Client Validation with Data Annotations with a List in the view data,
supporting Model Binding?
i have a form on a particular ASPX page that has custom js validation. Also on this form is a navigation menu in the header.
The navigation menu items are built programatically and are initiated by __doPostBack calls which obviously submits the form.
The problem i am having is that the form itself has code something like the following
onsubmit='return validateForm()'
and if the form has not been filled out then the form cant submit. This in itself is not a problem unless a user goes to the form but decides to navigate away.
When this happens the validateForm function fails.
Does anyone have a workaround for this issue?
NB: On my nav links i have already set CausesValidation="False"
This is the markup:
<div id="divNavigate" class="absolute_topleft">
<asp:LinkButton ID="linkGoHome" runat="server" OnClick="linkGoHome_Click" CausesValidation="false" CssClass="xxx">text.</asp:LinkButton>
</div>
This is the handler:
protected void linkGoHome_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Redirect("xxxxx");
}
This is the validation function:
[Code]....
And this is how its called:
<form id="formLogin" runat="server" onsubmit="return validateTextField(field1)">
I have a webservice that supplies data (Publisher Object) to a silverlight project.
I want to bind the Publisher to a dataform and have the dataform handle to validation.
I would like to achive this by using DataAnnotations.
My question is..
Can I or how do you amend the Publisher object (Generated by the webservice) to add the DataAnnotations
I'm using an entity model with metadata annotations. My controller method looks like this...
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
{
return View(model);
}
else
{
UpdateModel(model);
repo.Save();
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
If I enable client side validation in the view I'll get the error per the Attributes from the metadata class. If I take clientside validation out, error gets thrown from saving to the DB rather than return the view with an Error Summary.
This is the top portion of my view....
<% using (Html.BeginForm())
{%>
<%: Html.ValidationSummary(true) %>
I've tried running without debugging (ctrl + f5) in debug and release mode as well as setting breakpoints and Debugging (f5) but it just seems weird to get Client side validation without server side validation. What am I missing here?

View 7 RepliesI have various questions about validation using data annotations. I am using the following setup

data annotations
Basically, I'm trying to get unique validation working and i'm a little confused. My models are as follows:
public class Buyer
{
public int Id { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage = "The email is required")]
public string Email { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage= "The name is required")]
public string Name { get; set; }
}
public class Seller
{

[Required(ErrorMessage = "The email is required")]

There's a way to set the default resource to the data annotations validations?I don't wanna make something like this:

I have this attribute in my view model:
[DataType(DataType.DateTime)]
public DateTime? StartDate { get; set; }
If I want to display the date, or populate a textbox with the date, I have these:
<%: Model.StartDate %>
<%: Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.StartDate) %>
Whenever the date is displayed, it's displayed like: 01/01/2011 12:00:00 AM
But I'd like to only display 01/01/2011
Is there a way to apply a display format with data annotations? I don't want to have to go to every instance where I display a date, and add some code to format it.
I used the gridviewhelper to group the rows in a gridview.
[Code]....
Each row as two itemtemplate, each one with a checkbox.
[Code]....
I'm having some problems when i search for the rows that have a checkbox checked.
[Code]....
I see when debugging, that for some reason the checkbox is checked in the row that have the groupheader, and then, in the row that is effectibly selected, the checkbox is not checked. So, in few words, how can i bypass the groupheader row and only search the checkboxes in the other rows.
I have a Car class that I'm trying to display in an MVC 3 view using the WebGrid helper. Below are the Car and it's metadata class.
Car class:

}
Car metadata class:
public class CarMetadata
{
[DisplayName("Car Name")]
[StringLength(100, ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(ValidationText), ErrorMessageResourceName="CarNameDescriptionLength")]
[Required]
public string CarName { get; set; }
}
View contents:
@model List<Car>

var grid = new WebGrid(Model, canPage: true, rowsPerPage: 10);
grid.Pager(WebGridPagerModes.NextPrevious);
@grid.GetHtml(
htmlAttributes: new { id = "grid" },
columns: grid.Columns(
grid.Column("CarName", ?????)
));
GOAL: I'd like to figure out how to use the DisplayName data annotation as the column header text in the WebGrid (?????). Does anyone know how this is accomplished?
quick question: I have a view on my HomeController which is used to create a new 'model'. This view posts to a different controller to keep things tidy. The problem I am having is when I enter invalid details into the form, the rules I specified never seem to make it back to the original view and thus my validation messages or summary never get populated. Is there a way around this because I am using a view model with two IEnumerable lists in it.

I am using Data Annotations in ASP.NET MVC2 for data validation.There are cases where Model is invalid in Control Action method, by the time I received it. So I add defaults [where data is not present in cetain scenarios, for valid reasons. Other times it is error].All I want to do at this point is, because I updated the model, I want to re-validate model - so that it re-applies all validation again as per data annotations.
If I call Controller.ValidateModel method, I am getting exception saying, it cannot take the model object or type is not correct.If I don't re-validate, my Model.IsValid is false -even though I set up defaults.I am wondering if there a way I can call to re-validate model, from in-side a controller action?

View 1 RepliesScenario: I have a bunch of web applications for which I want to add a simple ping functionality via http handler. Example: [URL]
Problem: For some of the applications this approach does not work becasue of custom HttpModule. These modules have some depedency on either authentication or some other processing logic due to which it makes the request invalid.
I am trying to find a solution to get this ping functionality work without making any changes to existing HttpModules.
I am trying to bypass the ConfirmButtonExtender depending on the value of another field in the page. Basically, when a user click on my "Cancel" button, I normally display a modalpopup using the confirmbuttonextender and the modalpopupextender to display a dialog box confirming that they wish to cancel any changes they have made and return to the prior screen. If they click Yes, the button's onclick event fires which calls some code in the codebehind and redirects the user to another page. If they click no, it just returns to the same page, with no changes. However, in some situations, I know that my user is unable to perform any edits (they aren't allowed to) and for those users, I don't want to display the "Are you sure you want to leave you will loose any changes" dialog box. I've set a hidden checkbox field named "cbAllowEdit" to indicate whether the user is allowed to edit the fields or not. I was trying to use the technique found at link text to get this working but it just doesn't even seem to be firing the button's onclientclick event at all.
ASPX & Javascript
<asp:CheckBox ID="cbAllowEdit" runat="server" Checked="true" />

I am updating a website for a client. I am adding a module to it which uses the same username and password as the main site and has a link on the main admin page. But has a different admin page. I was wondering if I could use a session state variable to let the client automatically login to the module if he is already logged in to the admin page and how would I go about it?Secondly,I have 4 master pages setup. Two for the main website and Two for the module inside the website. Since the module is a separate app. Is there a way I can still nest the master pages to give the module a same look as the website. Other than creatings separate css files and then restarting the whole procedure.I get this error " The virtual path '/Website/MasterPage.master' maps to another application, which is not allowed."
