    Hello,

    I have this valdiation summary:

    <div asp-validation-summary="All" class="text-danger" >
        <span class="k-invalid-msg" data-for="Description" data-valmsg-for="Description"
            id="Description_validationMessage" role="alert" >
         </span>
            ... more fields
    </div>
     
    <textarea asp-for="Description" class="form-control mc0" data-bind="value: ent.Description">
    </textarea>

     
    let viewModel = kendo.observable({
     
        save: function() {
            let editForm = $("#edit-form").kendoValidator().data("kendoValidator");
     
            if (editForm.validate()) {
              this.entDataSource.sync();
        }
        },
    })

     

    Because of the business rules, I need to validate only certain fields, based on the current entity state.

    Is there a way to validate only certain fields, like all fields with class "mc0" (or fields in a "div#id-for-state-X") and have the error messages displayed in the summary?

    Thanks.

    Hi Daniel,

    This Dojo example demonstrates how we can use the submit event to add the "required" attribute to all elements that have the "needValidation" class.

    In the above Dojo, if you click on the "Submit" button the below line will select all DOM elements that have "needValidation" class and will add the "required" attribute to these elements. 

    $(".needValidation").attr("required", true);

    After that, the form will be validated based on the presence of the "required" attribute in the different DOM elements. 

    There is also this line in the submit event function:

    $('#ticketsForm').find("[required=\"required\"]").attr("required", false);

    It removes all "required" fields before setting the same attribute to the elements that has the "needValidation" class.

    I hope the above solution will help you resolve the issue in the application you are working on.
