Ability to submit if the tag is DIV

[Aleksandr]

seems just work perfectly if the tag is FORM, if div, submit will not be fired, would be great to have one of two options:

1 - use div tag (all works well except submit)

2 - give the ability to get a model from the form, like when submitting (e.model), form.model or form.model(), now have to form._model & get to string & back to json to be able to post

P.S some time we cant use form tag to do not have it nested

Hi Aleksandr,

1. As mentioned in the documentation, the Form should be initialized from '<form>' element

- https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/controls/layout/form/overview#initializing-the-form

2. When a Form is submitted you can get the submitted model in the submit event handler:

- https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/form/events/submit

submit: function(ev) {
            console.log(ev.model);
}

Let me know in case you have any additional question on the matter.

Hello Neli,

thx a lot for your reply, I know how it has to work according to the documentation, but such a design significantly limits the possible usages, for example, if we work with old asp.net forms the asp.net creates the main parent form and all the controls are inside it, unfortunately, Telerik forms control does not work when the form tag is nested (what is correct), that is why i have switched to div & found a workaround to make it work, but having it out of the box would be preferable, please take my post as a future request, it does not require too much work & will make forms control more robust

Thx Alex
