MVC :: Using DataAnnotation Validation On A View With Multiple Forms?
May 10, 2010
I've got a view with 2 forms on it - one to login and the other to register. My problem is that the client-side validation from MicrosoftMvcValidation is firing regardless of which form I submit - because my forms are rendering the inputs with the same id e.g.
PropertiesMustMatch fails because for some reason it's hit PRIOR to "Required" property. How come??
how do you set the order or validation so that Required is hit prior to any custom validation?
I have a class like so:
[Validation.PropertiesMustMatch("Password", "ConfirmPassword", ErrorMessage = "'Password' and 'Confirm password' do not match.")] [Validation.ValidateMemberUsername("Username", "Oldusername")] public class Member [code]....
I have a table that displays a user control on each row. The user controls are strongly typed to a viewmodel which contains DataAnnotation style validation. If one of the rows has invalid data entered (lets say the 3rd row) the data annotation validates display agains the first row/user control.How do I get the data annotation to show against the relevant user control?
The first user control in the view is just to validate the customer and get some more details about the customer. This control is having one text box (customer name) with the button. When the user clicks the button it should validate the customer name in the client side using data annotations of customer model. if validation success then it should use some bussiness logic to verify the customer and show the customer details on the form.
The 2nd user control in the view is to get the address of the customer by searching for the house no and the postcode. This control is having 2 text box with the button.
The first user control is based on the strongly typed customer entity
The 2nd user control is bsed on the strongly typed address entity
The view with both the user control is based on the strongly typed order entity.
The issue here is with the validation. I have the validation summary in the view and client sider validation is enabled. When i click the search button on the first user control the client validation starts and throws validation error messages because when i search for the customer at that point of time i will not have values to may of the customer related fields in the order view.
The same thing happen when i click the search button on the 2nd view. It will throw client side validation for other fields.
What i want to achive is that when the user click the search button on the user control 1 then the validation should happen only to the customer name field (both in client and server).
When the user click the search button on the 2 nd user control the the validation should happen only for houseno and the postcode both in client and the server.
When the user clicks the save button on the order view all the fields in the form even the controls usere input fields should get validated. How to achive this in mvc?
how do i get the [Display(Name="Some Title")] DataAnnotations "Some Title" rendered in the List scaffold view's output?
I create a strongly typed list scaffold view for this class:
public class CompanyHoliday { [Key] [code]...
However i don't want "Date" and "Name" in the table header - i want "Datum" and "Feiertag Name" rendered there dynamically. The actual column header titles should come from the Display Dataannotation.
This project I'm working on have this custom clientside JavaScript validation framework created for (which I cannot change) that show error messages/summary based on your data annotations and a "Validate" method in your ViewModel.
Like I said I'm not allowed to change this, so wont be able to go with suggestions doing that.
What the person that created this did not foresee, is that one might need put several partials of the same type and having the same view model (each in a form) on a view.
So I went ahead and did things the normal way (using Html.whateverFor<model => model.whatever) and wala!....the custom validation thing throws error messages for the specific form fields, next to each form in the view. I was suggested to create a "prefix" for each instance of the view model, and do something like this:
I am using a telerik radgrid so there are around 5 columns each column edittemplate contains a control along with a required field validator and also a property called AllowMultiRowEdit is set to true so i am able to multiple rows in edit mode.
If any of the values are cleared the for multiple rows I want only those to be validated on update of that particular row.
So i implemented the Grids item data bound event find each and every validator along with the update button and set a unique validation group.
The above implementation most times but fails at some time. Is there any other way of going about this ?
one thing that has been puzzling me since learning MVC2 is the following case scenario: I have a view which contains two latest news lists, a login form and a signup form. Every example I found on Views and View Models so far has a one-to-one example such as a simple login form etc. But how do I create a model that provides the properties and validation for a login and signup form and manages the data for the news lists. can I pass multiple models in the strongly typed view? When I created one model the form validation would fail as it expects all fields - login and signup to be filled. I am missing some advanced examples or information.
Im getting d following error.I've read various forms and cannot understand the reason for this issue. Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.
I have a view which takes two objects: booking and list of reasons for canceling that booking.I have two classes: clsBooking, clsBookingCancelationReason I can read both objects in my view - no problems there. After I read the objects, I display the booking details and I generate a list of cancelation reasons in the following way:
[Code]....
The code above generates a list of cancelation reasons.How do I pick up the selected ReasonId from the list? I need to generate a link that will contain the bookingId and the selected reason for canceling the booking.I can get the bookingId out easily since it's stored in the Model...but how do I go about the selected ReasonId?
I have 3 dropdownlists that contain dd mm and yyyy. Obviously, I need to test all 3 together to decide whether the date is valid or not - but how can this be done whilst outputting a single message "Please enter a day, year and month"?
I am developing a simple application. I have completed.
1 - Using Respositary Pattern
2 - using DataAnnotation for validation.
3 - Selecting, Creating, Updating and Deleting.
My Questions.1 - I have extra BL validation. Should I create Service layer or use that in Partial Class where my DataAnnotation is? I dont want to use DataAnnotations in one class and other BL validation in another class. Is there a way to combine both or Should I use those separately. Confused here? Any examples to implement BL.
2 - I have lots of Calculations to run once record is reterived and insterted. Where I put these calculations? Should I make extensions and call in controller or Methods in separate file. Any clean approach.
3 - Can I use Repositary Pattern and Service model in ASP.NET webforms with ADO.NET, Entity Framework and Linq to sql?
4 - I don't know id this is stupid question. Can we use ADO.NET with DataAnnotation somehow in Webforms and ado.net with mvc?.
Can we use one validation control to show different message for mutiple controls Suppose i am using Required Field Validator and having 5 text boxes in which value should be entered. So, can show the message on one Required Field Validator.
I have an application that needs to render a page that will have multiple Radio Button Groups as well as multiple CheckBoxes. The desired layout is determined by a database table.
This table defines a "Package". The "Package" can contain many different "Items" that require different controls used in the View. The "RadioGroupName" field is used to mark which RadioButtons should be grouped together. The "ViewControl" field marks which control should be used on the View to display the field. The query in my repository will return a result set such as
Given this result set, I need to render the view as follows:
A RadioButton group with 3 options (Item1, Item2, Item3) A CheckBox (Item4) A CheckBox (Item5) A RadioButton group with 3 options (Item6, Item7, Item8)
I have read that it is possible to use "if" conditions and looping structures inside the View. I have also read that this is a bad practice. Another issue I see is knowing which Item has been selected from each RadioButton group when I hit the Controller POST function. Previously I have built a page that has a single RadioButton group. My ViewModel was as follows:
I would like to create one view for my CRUD actions. The view contains 3 basic DIV updatetargets ("search form", "search result listing" and "action" (would be create,detail,edit,delete). Basic flow would be: "Search" updates the "Search Result Listing", click on CRUD actions in listing would show partial view in "action".
how do I call to refresh the "Listing" after I do any add/update/delete without having user click search again?
Is there any support from JQuery for DataAnnotations?Found this but not sure if its supporting. http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-validation/
I have 4 forms in my asp.net mvc view.I have enabled client side validation on each by put <% Html.EnableClientValidation(); %> Above Html.BeginForm()of each form.The issue is that regardless of the fact that I've specified ID's for the forms the first form on the page gets validated whenever I click submit of the other forms. Is this usage supported?
I am using two button click events and some required field validators . If I click the first button  the fields in  the other button also validates
I actually want to validate based on the button click if a first button is clicked  only the fileds which are under button1 should validate not the fields which are in button2.
I need to be able to validate multiple validation groups with the click of one button. My Form consists of two text boxes and a drop down list for input. The form also, currently, has three buttons, one for each control. Each of those buttons are tied to a validation control and if the validation is successful, it will add the user inputted data into a database that I have. The interesting part comes when I need to add a forth button which will act as a "Save All" Button. When this button is clicked, I need it to fire the three validation groups.
Is it possible to add multiple validation groups to the "Save All" Button?
