Can I add a client-side validation on a form with Syncfusion components?

Hi, I'm creating a form in a dialog box with some fields that use Syncfusion components - like DropDownList and DateTimePicker. I need to add validation on the client side before sending to the server. Try using FormValidator but it doesn't work for me. What should I do to do the validation? I hope you can help me. I thank you in advance

Hi Juan, 
 
Greetings from Syncfusion support. 
 
Yes, we can validate client side using formvalidator. Kindly refer the below code example  
 
@Html.EJS().Dialog("dialog").Header("Form Validation").IsModal(true).Width("700px").ContentTemplate(@<div> 
            @using (Ajax.BeginForm("NuevoConsumible", "Preventivo", 
                        new AjaxOptions { HttpMethod = "Post", OnSuccess = "ConsumibleComplete", OnFailure = "ConsumibleFail", UpdateTargetId = "Nuevo" }, 
                        new { id = "FormContents" })) 
            {<div> 
                    <div class="form-group"> 
                        @Html.LabelFor(model => model.dropdownValue, "Suministro") 
                        @(Html.EJS().DropDownListFor(model => model.dropdownValue) 
                            .DataSource(dataManager => dataManager.Url(Url.Action("DataCatConsumible", "Preventivo", new { area = "Mantenimiento" }, Request.Url.Scheme)) 
                                .Adaptor("UrlAdaptor").CrossDomain(true)) 
                            .Fields(new Syncfusion.EJ2.DropDowns.DropDownListFieldSettings 
                            { 
                                Text = "Text", 
                                Value = "Value" 
                            }) 
                            .Placeholder("Seleccione") 
                            .PopupHeight("200px") 
                            .Width("250px") 
                            .Render() 
                        ) 
                    </div> 
                    <div class="form-group"> 
                        @*@Html.LabelFor(m => m.Cantidad, "Cantidad")*@ 
                        @*@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Cantidad, String.Format("{0:0.00}",Model.Cantidad), new { @class="form-control", @type = "number" })*@ 
                        <input type="number" step="0.01" name="Cantidad" id="Cantidad" class="form-control" data-msg-containerid="inputError" required /> 
                        <div id="inputError"></div> 
                    </div> 
 
                    <div class="form-group"> 
                        <div> 
                            @Html.LabelFor(model => model.rangevalue, "Fecha Entrega") 
                            @Html.EJS().DateTimePickerFor(model => model.rangevalue).Format("dd-MMMM-yyyy hh:mm a").Render() 
 
                        </div> 
                    </div> 
                </div> 
                <div class="form-actions"> 
                    <div class="row"> 
                        <div class="col-md-12"> 
                            <button class="btn btn-default" type='button' id="btnCancel" onclick="CerrarForma()"> 
                                Cerrar 
                            </button> 
                            <button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit" id="btnSave"> 
                                <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-save"></i> 
                                Guardar Cambios 
                            </button> 
                        </div> 
                    </div> 
                </div> 
            } 
        </div>).Render()

I have seen the example they gave and it works. Will it work if you had the html markup of the form in a partial view and that it fills the contents of the dialog box through an ajax request? Will the validation still work?

Hi Juan, 
 
Yes, we can validate the form element through partial view inside the dialog component. Kindly refer the below code block. 
 
btnEle.onclick = function () { 
        // load the partial view content to dialog while open the dialog element. 
        $.ajax({ 
            type: "POST", 
            url: "/Home/_PartialView", 
            success: function (response) { 
                document.getElementById('partialTarget').innerHTML = response; 
                eval(document.getElementById('partialTarget').querySelector('script').innerHTML); 
                var options = { 
            rules: { 
                //must specify the name attribute value in rules section 
                'dropdownValue': { required: true }, 
                'Cantidad': { required: true }, 
                'rangevalue': { required: true } 
            }, 
            customPlacement: (inputElement, errorElement) => { 
                inputElement.parentElement.parentElement.appendChild(errorElement); 
            } 
        }; 
        var formObject = new ej.inputs.FormValidator('#FormContents', options); 
        formObject.validate(); 
            } 
        }) 
        dialogObj.show(); 
 
    };
