I am using jQuery.load() to render a partial
view. This part looks like this:
$('#sizeAddHolder').load(
'/MyController/MyAction', function () { ... });
The code for actions in my controller is the following:
public ActionResult MyAction(byte id)
{
var
model = new MyModel
{
ObjectProp1 = "Some text"
};
return View(model);
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult MyAction(byte id, FormCollection form)
{
// TODO: DB insert logic goes here
var result = ...;
return Json(result);
}
I am returning a partial
view that looks something like this:
<% using (Html.BeginForm("MyAction", "MyController")) {%>
<%= Html.ValidationSummary(true) %>
<h3>Create my object</h3>
<fieldset>
<legend>Fields</legend>
<div class="editor-label">
<%= Html.LabelFor(model =>
model.ObjectProp1) %>
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
<%= Html.TextBoxFor(model =>
model.Size.ObjectProp1) %>
<%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =>
model.ObjectProp1) %>
</div>
div class="editor-label">
<%= Html.LabelFor(model =>
model.ObjectProp2) %>
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
<%= Html.TextBoxFor(model =>
model.ObjectProp2) %>
<%= Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =>
model.ObjectProp2) %>
</div>
<p>
<input type="submit" value="Create" />
</p>
</fieldset>
<% } %>
Client side validation does not work in this case. What is more the script that contains validation messages also isn't included in the
view that's returned. Both properties in my
model class have Required and StringLength attributes.
Is there any way to trigger client side validation in a
view which has been loaded like this?
