For some reason fields named with '.value' or .anything does not generate client validation. For example this code:
@Html.TextArea("ContentObjectFirm.Description")
generates this:
<textarea rows="2" name="ContentObjectFirm.Description" id="ContentObjectFirm_Description" data-val-required="Firm description is required" data-val="true" cols="20">
I'm trying to implement client validation for my custom type, however i'm not sure how to do it for min/max validators.
[MultilanguagePropertyRequired(ErrorMessageResourceName = "fld_Description_val_Required", ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(Resources.Service.Controllers.Firm))]
[MultilanguagePropertyStringLength(1000, MinimumLength = 150, ErrorMessageResourceName = "fld_Description_val_MinLength_lbl", ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(Resources.Service.Controllers.Firm))]
[Display(Name = "fld_Description_lbl", ResourceType = typeof(Resources.Service.Controllers.Firm))]
public MultilanguageProperty<string> Description

I want to use canonical url's in my website. I read a few things about it on the internet, but i'm looking for a solution which will automatically generate the canonical for me runtime and add it in the html-code returned to the browser. I've already found an example on the internet using an attribute, but this is not what i'm looking for. Using an attribute i'm still deciding which page should get an canonical or not myself, I want every page to have one generated automatically. I take it there should be (existing) solutions? I'm struggling finding an good example to work on,
View 2 RepliesJust found out this problem. Upgraded by site to jQuery 1.5.1. I had some cascading dropdowns populating via some very simple code like this:
[Code]....
This code no longer runs with jQuery 1.5.1 AND unobtrusive validation active. Fails also with jquery 1.5.0. Works fine with jquery 1.4.4.
Why is it that client validation is getting triggered saying that my Default Theme field is required even if I didn't specify a [Required] attribute in my model?
public class Site
{
public int SiteId { get; set; }
Required(ErrorMessage = "*")]
[LocalizedDisplayName("Title")]
public string Title { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage = "*")]
[LocalizedDisplayName("RootDirectory")]

The default validation in MVC 3 is based on jQuery Validation, which I can usually customize with something like:
$.validator.setDefaults({
submitHandler: function() { alert('submitHandler'); },
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
// do something important here
alert('errorPlacement');
},
errorClass: "error",
errorElement: "input",
onkeyup: false,
onclick: false
})
I know the unobtrusive client validation is required using Html.XXXFor to generate the input html. But in my project, I want to use Html.TextBox(), and also want to use unobtrusive client validation. I think you'd better expose a extension method like Html.TextBox(..., ModelMetadata,... ) allow me pass the ModelMetadata manually.
View 5 RepliesI'm using the latest RC with asp.net mvc 3, and have turned on unobtrusive javascript validation and added the necessary scripts to the page. All of the validation works perfectly, but when I try to submit the page, it simply doesn't post. If I turn unobtrusive javascript off in the web.config without making any other changes, everything works perfectly fine.
Here's my scripts I'm using:
<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-1.4.4.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery.validate.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>

View 6 RepliesI am using mvc 3 unobtrusive concept for validation . It is working fine at client/server side.The problem is that it wont clear until I hit the server again.
Is there any extra code i have to write to clear validation summary ?
I have a text box in which I want only digits (either decimal or whole numbers). I have applied Required Field Validator and Regular Expression Validator on it.I have an Image Button, by clicking on which, I want this validation to be performed. But when I build the code, and clicks on Image Button, these validators do not work and I am redirected to the server side method of Image Button and after completing the execution of server side method, control comes to these validators and client side validation executes.I am fed up by finding solutions on Google and unable to find any solution.Please tell me of anyone of you know the solution that why server side code is running first and client side validation is executing after server side code execution.
View 11 RepliesI am currently designing a multi-tenant website where many clients will share the same code base but have their own "look-and-feel" to the site when the are logged in. This is nothing new, but I am looking for ideas on the best way to implement the solution using ASP.NET and MVC3 (which looks awesome).
The main thing I am looking at now is how to change the CSS style-sheet and text for the labels and static portions of the pages per client. So this would be something like localization where I would want to just have a string in the Razor template, like @FirstNameLabel and then at runtime it would grab the specific value setup for the logged in client for that variable.
I know I could implement this with a database, but I am just making sure there isn't some clever way to do this in .NET (I have been in the Java world for several years now). It seems like I could possibly use a variation of localization or globalization with ResourceManager, but I haven't found any examples that were not based on cultures, which I do not want/need at this time.
I make a partialView based "Detail-Edit" function as : 1 create two partial view : Details , Edit
2 in Details PartialView I render a link as "Ajax.ActionLink( .. "Edit" , AjaxOptions { get , updateTargetId="xx" , InsertMode="Replace" } )
3 in Edit PartialView I use "Ajax.BeginForm()" ...
As a result I can perfectly swith from Details view to Edit view in ajax manner ; however when I change to Edit mode in this approach, the "obtrusive js validation" loses its function that it can't prevent user from callback ajax even with invalid inputs. I think this is a common issue for MVC3 developers, could anyone help to give a standardized solution against this ? or any other valuable solutions ?In a word, just want to realize the traditional UpdatePanel-based "Edit,Details" effect on MVC mode with ajax .
I am currently in the process of converting old "Web 1.0" code to meet current standards.
Is there a better way to generate and append a client-side script other than appending a plethora of lines to a StringBuilder and then registering it to the page via ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType(), "startUpScript", strScript)?
Is there any other way (besides putting all of this into a global .js file) that this example can be improved? If including this into the main .js file is the "best practice" alternative, then why?
Dim lsbScript As New Text.StringBuilder
lsbScript.Append(vbCrLf)
lsbScript.Append("<script language=""javascript>""" & vbCrLf)
lsbScript.Append("<!--" & vbCrLf)........
I have a RegisterModel view model I use for my new account registration page. Depending on the status of a registration task, the model has a relevant text message to display for the user, e.g. "Waiting for email confirmation" etc.
I currently populate this string property in the manner below, but couldn't help wondering about mixing markup and content like I do with the <p> tags. Is there a better or more accepted way of doing this, besides having multiple partial views with actual HTML literals instead of model properties?
RegisterMessage = "<p>Please use the form below to create a new account.</p>";
RegisterMessage = string.Format("<p>Passwords are required to be a minimum of {0} characters in length.</p>", _membershipService.MinRequiredPasswordLength);
EDIT: I have just noticed that the <p> tags are rendering literally, but I doubt that issue falls under the same question.
I am trying to create a custom password validation attribute which has these requirements
1. cannot be empty.
2. doesn't contain space or other special chracters, which I'll define later.
3. length is between 6 - 12
[Code]....
it works fine on the server-side but I'd like to make this work on the client side as well, so I created a PasswordAttributeAdapter class

If I have something like the following:
<asp:TextBox id="test" runat="sever"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server" ControlToValidate="test"
ErrorMessage="Required"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<asp:Label runat="server" id="lblStatus"></asp:Label>
if in the code behind, I set the label to "You must enter a value if the textbox is empty" to validate it on the server side and this is fine, but if javascript is enabled, I don't want to show the client side validation and the server side label together. Is this something where I would just have to disable the client-side validators if javascript was enabled?
I'd like to implement ajax message box that will gather information from validators on a page when client-side validation fires. Like: I have left some text fields blank then press submit button and appropriate RequiredFieldValidators show messages. I would like my message box shows those messages too. I am looking for appropriate way to hook on validators JS event or something.
