How to validate a number field which must be integer?

[Nick Wu]

there is a number field name "SiteHits". For this field ,I define validation as below:

validation:{

required:true,

min:1,

digits:true

}

I also include jquery(version 1.7.1) and jquery-validate(version 1.9.0).
it seems "digits" is not useful.

Does the problem cause by jquery ?
OR
Does KendoUI not support "digits" validation?

Hope the solution for it, thanks!

A temporary solution is setting a NumericTextBox with  "{decimals:0}" to field editor.   :-(

Nick,

could you please provide the source of your solution?

[Nick Wu]

I just initialize the NumericTextBox instance with {decimals:0, format : "{0:n0}" , //other configuration...} .

With 'decimals:0' , dot which be input into textbox will be ignored. 
With 'format:''{0:n0}"', the value will be shown as integer .  ('format:"#" and 'format:"n0"' will get same result.)

The solution do not validate user's input , just control user's input. :-)
But I really think this is not a good idea !   Because I can't put this validation logic in model, so I must put this logic in view.

Thanks for the answer!
dont you know if the same validation thing will work for kendo grid same way?

[Nick Wu]

in my last reply, I said my solution just do more bit to control user's input in view , it's not a validation.
In fact, it seems there is no  validation rule for number type about "decimals".
Like offical example on "Editing Custom Editor", in my solution, I custom the field's editor using NumbericTextbox which configured with {"decimals:0",...}.

I find another post about custom validation, see below:

maybe it's more better, but I have no time to do it.  ;-)
