public validate method for activeform

alex-w · April 5, 2011, 12:29pm

I’ve got an ActiveForm with client validation enabled and want to submit it using ajaxSubmitButton();

The problem is the submit button will happily fire regardless of the state of validation.

I think a callable validate() function would be good (could only work for client side validation).

It would display any errors then return a boolean value indicating if the form is valid.

This would allow the use of beforeSend in the ajax button.

you can use afterValidate option.

	&lt;?php

Yii::app()->clientScript->registerScript(‘search’, "

function refresh_gridview(form, data, hasError)

{

if (&#33;hasError) {


	&#036;.fn.yiiGridView.update('&#036;gridview_id', {


		data: &#036;(form).serialize()


	});


}

}

");

		&#036;form=&#036;this-&gt;beginWidget('CActiveForm', array(


			'action'=&gt;Yii::app()-&gt;createUrl(&#036;this-&gt;route),


			'id'=&gt;'form_id',					


			'enableAjaxValidation'=&gt;true,


			'enableClientValidation'=&gt;true,


			 'clientOptions'=&gt;array('validateOnSubmit'=&gt;true,'afterValidate'=&gt;'js:refresh_gridview'),	





		)); 


	?&gt;
