I have some problem with Html.ValidationSummary. I don't want to display property errors in ValidationSummary. And when I set Html.ValidationSummary(true) it does not display error messages from ModelState. When there is some Exception in controller action on string
MembersManager.RegisterMember(member);
catch section adds an error to the ModelState:
ModelState.AddModelError("error", ex.Message);
But ValidationSummary does not display this error message. When I set Html.ValidationSummary(false) all messages are displaying, but I don't want to display property errors. How can I fix this problem?
Here is the code I'm using:
Model:
public class Member
{
[Required(ErrorMessage = "*")]
[DisplayName("Login:")]
public string Login { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage = "*")]
[DataType(DataType.Password)]
[DisplayName("Password:")]
public string Password { get; set; }
[Required(ErrorMessage = "*")]
[DataType(DataType.Password)]
[DisplayName("Confirm Password:")]
public string ConfirmPassword { get; set; }
}
Controller:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Register(Member member)
{
try
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
return View();
MembersManager.RegisterMember(member);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("error", ex.Message);
return View(member);
}
}
View:
<% using (Html.BeginForm("Register", "Members", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" })) {%>
<p>
<%= Html.LabelFor(model => model.Login)%>
<%= Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Login)%>
<%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Login)%>
</p>
<p>
<%= Html.LabelFor(model => model.Password)%>
<%= Html.PasswordFor(model => model.Password)%>
<%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Password)%>
</p>
<p>
<%= Html.LabelFor(model => model.ConfirmPassword)%>
<%= Html.PasswordFor(model => model.ConfirmPassword)%>
<%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.ConfirmPassword)%>
</p>
<div>
<input type="submit" value="Create" />
</div>
<%= Html.ValidationSummary(true)%>
<% } %>
