DatePicker input valdiation

[Anton]

Hello,

I would like DatePicker to validate obviously invalid user input, but it doesn't happen. Why?

I use the following code:

<input type="text"/>

<script>
    kendo.culture("en-GB");
    $('input').kendoDatePicker();
 /script>

 

Here is it in dojo:  http://dojo.telerik.com/IHoSa

 

What are the steps to enable validtion of user's input?

 

Thanks

Hello Anton,

Please take a look at this Kendo UI Dojo by Progress illustrating a Kendo Datepicker with validation.  

The validator in the example checks to see if the value is a valid date.  By setting the rules,  you can set what kind of values are allowed.  If it is not valid, the message appears next to the Kendo DatePicker.  I also have a message for the required attribute.

I would suggest going through our overview of the Kendo UI Validator, our demos, and the API Reference.

I hope this helps!
