I want to add an "error" class to my markup whenever a field is invalid. In the Form.cshtml file I have the field foreach loop, and access to a lot of information. Only thing I cant find is a property or something to show me if the field is actually invalid. The validation message is written like this by standard:
Razor check if field is valid
Hi Guys,
I want to add an "error" class to my markup whenever a field is invalid. In the Form.cshtml file I have the field foreach loop, and access to a lot of information. Only thing I cant find is a property or something to show me if the field is actually invalid. The validation message is written like this by standard:
@if (Model.ShowFieldValidaton){@Html.ValidationMessage(f.Id)}
That's the only place that a "real" validation is made and it's kind of cheat, as it just returns som html.
Can I somehow get a true/false instead?

Hmm maybe it's better to look into adding this to the jquery validate stuff, think that has some hooks you can use

Or try to access ModelState["Name"].Errors.Count() > 0
Hi Tim,
There's no ModelState in Form.cshtml. Problem is that the FieldViewModel object contains no information about errors.
About the jQuery Validate plugin, it would work without hooks or anything if I could:
1. Add a required="required" attribute to the fields
2. Add an "error" class to the field if it does not validate correctly
Both should be done serverside, but I can't figure out what FieldViewModel properties I should use.

Hi Rune,
Just tested and you should be able to use
in fieldtype view:
@if (ViewData.ModelState[Model.Name] != null)
{
@ViewData.ModelState[Model.Name].Errors.Count()
}
in form view (field loop)
if (ViewData.ModelState[f.Name] != null)
{
@ViewData.ModelState[f.Name].Errors.Count()
}
Perfect. That worked just like I wanted it.
Thanks a lot Tim.
