I'm using the out-of-the box data annotations and letting MVC handle the client-side validations for me. I'm also using a tabstrip to segregate different sections of input.  However, all of the input is in the same form.

What I've found is that if I go to a different tab other than the first one and trigger the form submit, the validation doesn't fire and the form gets submitted.

Is there any way to avoid this?  How should I be going about it?

Thanks.

Hello Joey,

Basically the validator should be working even on multiple tabs.

I created a JSBin example which you can try and see that the form is not submitted until the validation passes.

I assume that in your case you are loading the tabs with Ajax and they are not validated because the inputs does not exist into the DOM before the content is loaded.
