MVC3 Razor JQuery client side validation with an a

问题:

I am being asked to create a login form that when the user input doesn't pass validation it pops an alert box.

I have everything wire up using the model based validation.

ex:

 public class LogonViewModel
    {
        [Required( ErrorMessage = "User Name is Required")]
        public string UserName { get; set; }

        [Required( ErrorMessage = "Password is required")]
        public string Password { get; set; }
    }

I have a validation summary on the page:

Html.ValidationSummary()

I would like the summary to be on the page just in case the user has javascript off. But if the client side validation fires I want to also catch the validation event and put the errors into the alert box like I am being asked.

My form is basically ...

@Html.ValidationSummary()
 @using (Html.BeginForm(null, null, FormMethod.Post, new { id = "loginForm" }))
     {
      username: @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.UserName) <br/>
      password: @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Password) <br/>
      <input type="submit" value="Login"/>


    }

One of the things I tried was

<script language="javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {

            $("#loginForm").validate({
                invalidHandler: function (form, validator) {
                    var errors = validator.numberOfInvalids();
                    if (errors) {
                        alert(errors);
                    }
                }
            });
        });



    </script>

I can't figure out how to make this work. I just want to allow the normal validation and showing of the errors but have the opportunity to do just a bit more.

回答1:

One solution would be to modify the onErrors function in jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js. The function is very readable.

After much searching:

I found this Add InvalidHandler after jQuery validator initialization Which lead me to this solution:

 $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#loginForm").bind('invalid-form.validate',
                function (form, validator) {
                    var errors = "Login failed:\r\n";

                    for (var i = 0; i < validator.errorList.length; i++) {
                        errors = errors + "\r\n\t-" + validator.errorList[i].message;    
                    }

                    alert(errors);


                }
                );
        });

This will run the normal validation and update the validation summaries and set all the styles and then allow me to do extra stuff afterword.

This Worked for me...

var settings = $.data($('form')[0], 'validator').settings;

if (jQuery.validator) {
    jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
        showErrors: function (errorMap, errorList) {
            $.extend($.validator.defaults, settings);
            var message = '';
            for (var i = 0; i < errorList.length; i++) {
                message += errorList[i].message + '\n\n';
            }

            alert(message);//Replace your modal popup here
        }
    });
}
