Required

[Louis]

Hello,

I need to use Autcomplete and the field associate with it in my model have a Required attribute.

So in my view despite I have a value in the Autocomplete, I got the message "Required field".  I keep the  @Html.ValidationMessageFor under my @(Html.Telerik().AutoCompleteFor...

How I can keep this validation and avoid "Required field" when I have a value?

Have nice Holidays.

Hi Louis,

 We couldn't understand what the problem is. Is validation working or not? Could you provide some more code? The model and view would be enough.

This is the code :

In the model :

[Required(ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(GlobalesResources), ErrorMessageResourceName = "RequiredMessage")]

public string Nom { get; set; }

In the view :

@(Html.Telerik().AutoCompleteFor(model => model.Nom)

           .Name("strNom")

           .ClientEvents(events => events

           .OnError("Grid_onErrorRequestedURLNotReturnJSON")

           )

           .Encode(false)

           .DataBinding(binding => binding.Ajax().Select("ObtenirIdentifications", "LesNoms"))

   )

   @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Nom)

Even I put a value in the autocomplete, the messsage "Field required" display.

Hello,

Your autocomplete should be named as the property which it represents in order for validation to work as expected. AutoCompleteFor will do this automatically thus there is no need to set the Name of the widget. Try this:

@(Html.Telerik().AutoCompleteFor(model => model.Nom)

           .ClientEvents(events => events

           .OnError("Grid_onErrorRequestedURLNotReturnJSON")

           )

           .Encode(false)

           .DataBinding(binding => binding.Ajax().Select("ObtenirIdentifications", "LesNoms"))

   )
