Validate event doesn't trigger

[Oscar]

Hi Kendo Team:

Documentation says that kendo validator has a validate event that triggers when validation completes, but there's no sample in your demos.
Could you please provide any sample showing this?
Kind regards.
Oscar.

Hello Oscar,

There is an example, showing the validate method in action as part of the documentation about the validator component on the following link:

Hello Kiril,
Test this http://jsbin.com/aBAVaXA/1/edit
I can't see any message in Console. Am I doing something wrong?

It seems that if the container is not a form, validate event doesn't trigger. Isn't it?

[Kiril Nikolov]

Hello Oscar,

The validate event is not fired, because pressing the button does not submit the form. You will need to either call the validate() method, when the button is pressed, or use a form tag as a container for your form.

I hope this information will be helpful.

Hello Kiril,
Thank you for the information.

This is my scenario:
I have a kendo comboBox whose input value is required. I have a blur event on the input of my comboBox to notify the user the result of the validation, but it triggers before the kendo validator triggers its checkValidity function, so I don't know if the value of the combo has validated sucessfully or not in my blur event.
How can I get my event blur triggers after kendo validation blur event?
It's a pity that your sample of kendo validator doesn't contain any comboBox.

Ups! I wrote a blur event handler before configuring kendoValidator.
Kiril, thank you very much for your help.
Kind regards.
Oscar.
