Ok, I am going to start over with a new answer here. Before you call $.validator.unobtrusive.parse, remove the original validator and unobtrusive validation from the form like so: var form = $(“#main_div”).closest(“form”); form.removeData(‘validator’); form.removeData(‘unobtrusiveValidation’); $.validator.unobtrusive.parse(form); This same answer is documented here.
If you try to parse a form that is already parsed it won’t update What you could do when you add dynamic element to the form is either You could remove the form’s validation and re validate it like this: var form = $(formSelector) .removeData(“validator”) /* added by the raw jquery.validate plugin */ .removeData(“unobtrusiveValidation”); /* … Read more
You have messed up your script inclusions. In your _Layout you have included the following scripts in that order: <script src=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8284207/@Url.Content(“~/Scripts/jquery.validate.min.js”)” type=”text/javascript”></script> <script src=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8284207/@Url.Content(“~/Scripts/jquery.validate.js”)” type=”text/javascript”></script> <script src=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8284207/@Url.Content(“~/Scripts/jQuery.IsDateAfter.js”)” type=”text/javascript”></script> Now obviously jquery.validate.min.js and jquery.validate.js represents the same script, the first being the minified version. But since you haven’t included the jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js script (this is done much … Read more
You can override the message by supplying the data-val-number attribute yourself when rendering the field. This overrides the default message. This works at least with MVC 4. @Html.EditorFor(model => model.MyNumberField, new { data_val_number=”Supply an integer, dude!” }) Remember that you have to use underscore in the attribute name for Razor to accept your attribute.
Four hours later I finally stumbled across the answer. For some reason Chrome seems to have some inbuilt predilection to use US date formats where IE and FireFox are able to be sensible and use the regional settings on the OS. jQuery.validator.methods[“date”] = function (value, element) { return true; }
I tried Xhalent’s approach but unfortunately it wasn’t working for me. Robin’s approach did work and didn’t work. It worked great for dynamically added elements, but if you tried to use JQuery to remove all the validation attributes and spans from the DOM, the validation library still would try to validate them. However, if you … Read more
The validator is parsed when the page is initially loaded. When you add dynamic content you need to reparse the validator. Modify your script to include the following lines after the content is loaded $(this).load(actionURL, function (html) { // Reparse the validator var form = $(‘form’); form.data(‘validator’, null); $.validator.unobtrusive.parse(form); $(‘form’, html).submit(function () { ….
