I have simple form with some field , I just want to validate my field on client side, so I am using and it working on blur event
the issue is when I submit form error message is displayed and form is submit
I am trying to validate on form submit but how I can get to know which validation is failed
<aui:form name="myForm" action="<%=uploadPromotionURL %>" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<aui:input name="promotionName" label="Promotion Name">
<aui:validator name="required" errorMessage="This field can not be empty"/>
</aui:input>
<aui:input name="promotionDesc" label="Promotion Description"/>
<aui:input type="file" name="offerImages" label="Promotion Image" multiple="multiple" accept="image/*" onchange="setUploadSize(this)">
<aui:validator name="acceptFiles">'jpg,png,tif,gif,jpeg'</aui:validator>
<aui:validator name="required" errorMessage="Please chhose offer"/>
<aui:validator name="custom" errorMessage="File size should not be more than 5Mb">
function(val,node,junction){
if(uploadSize==true){
return true;
}else{
return false;
}
}
</aui:validator>
</aui:input>
<aui:select label="Promotion Assignment" id="promotionAssignmentId"
helpMessage="Choose options" name="promotionAssignment"
multiple="true">
<c:forEach var="client" items="${clientList}">
<aui:option value="${client.key}">${client.value }</aui:option>
</c:forEach>
<aui:validator name="required"
errorMessage="Please Select At least One Client " />
</aui:select>
<aui:button type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" />
Only use <aui:validator>
as the body of <aui:input>
tags. For tags other than that, there are other approaches.
If you only need required field validation for the dropdown list, I would suggest you use the required="true"
attribute in the <aui:select>
tab. Doing so would display the default This field is required
message.
Should you need a custom error message, then you would have to use <aui:script>
for form validation:
<aui:script use="aui-form-validator">
new A.FormValidator({
boundingBox: $("<portlet:namespace />myForm"),
rules: {
<portlet:namespace />promotionAssignment: {
required: true
}
},
fieldStrings: {
<portlet:namespace />promotionAssignment: {
required: 'Please select at least one client'
}
}
});
</aui:script>
