- Enable client validation in web.config
<appSettings>
<add key="ClientValidationEnabled" value="true"/>
<add key="UnobtrusiveJavaScriptEnabled" value="true"/>
</appSettings>
2 The form
In your form you need to have a FormContext otherwise it will not generate validation attributes. If the FormContext is null we need to create a new FormContext like this in your view.
@{using (Html.BeginForm("Create", "Person", FormMethod.Post)
{
if (this.ViewContext.FormContext == null)
{
this.ViewContext.FormContext = new FormContext();
}
// .....
}
3 Phrase validation attributes
Then after the ajax request we need to phrase validation attributes using JQuery like this,<br />
$.get("@Url.Action("Create", "Person")", null, function (data) {
$('#yourDivId').html(data);
$("form").removeData("validator");
$("form").removeData("unobtrusiveValidation");
$.validator.unobtrusive.parse("form");
});
