Trying to fire jquery validate on form submit using .submit - javascript

But it isn't firing when I hit submit. It submits but doesn't do anything. Any ideas? The alert doesn't even get called :(
The page I'm doing this on, is my Checkout page on:
http://rsatestamls.kaliocommerce.com
(Need a product in your cart to proceed to checkout)
My Javascript code is:
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#Method input:checkbox").change(function () {
if (this.checked) {
var checkname = $(this).attr("name");
$('input[type=checkbox][id=OnAccount]').prop('value', 'True')
$("input:checkbox[name='" + checkname + "']").not(this).removeAttr("checked");
} else {
$('input[type=checkbox][id=OnAccount]').val('No');
}
});
$("#CheckoutOptions input:checkbox").change(function () {
if (this.checked) {
var checkname = $(this).attr("name");
$("input:checkbox[name='" + checkname + "']").not(this).removeAttr("checked");
}
});
});
$("#CheckOut").submit(function (event) {
alert("Handler for .submit() called.");
jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
debug: false,
success: "valid"
});
$("#CheckOut").validate({
rules: {
FirstName: {
required: true
},
LastName: {
required: true
},
Email: {

email: true

}
}
},
customernumber: {

depends: function (element) {
return $("#OnAccount").is(":checked");
}
}
}
}
});
});
populateCartTotal();
</script>

Your submit handler isn't in your $(document).ready block, but should be. The handler is never getting attached.
In fact, you shouldn't use a submit handler at all, here. Just put your validate call in the ready block. See the demo here: http://jquery.bassistance.de/validate/demo/
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#Method input:checkbox").change(function () {
if (this.checked) {
var checkname = $(this).attr("name");
$('input[type=checkbox][id=OnAccount]').prop('value', 'True')
$("input:checkbox[name='" + checkname + "']").not(this).removeAttr("checked");
} else {
$('input[type=checkbox][id=OnAccount]').val('No');
}
});
$("#CheckoutOptions input:checkbox").change(function () {
if (this.checked) {
var checkname = $(this).attr("name");
$("input:checkbox[name='" + checkname + "']").not(this).removeAttr("checked");
}
});
// move this stuff to here
jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
debug: false,
success: "valid"
});
$("#CheckOut").validate({
rules: {
// all those rules here
}
});
});
populateCartTotal();

As an addendum to Ed's answer, I would also recommend setting up your validation scheme outside of the submit() handler.

Validate.js ignoring other rules

I am using the validate.js plugin to validate my form. I have a method that validates at least one of the fields are filled in by the user. I used this Answer.
Here is my method:
$.validator.addMethod("require_from_group", function(value, element, options) {
var numberRequired = options[0];
var selector = options[1];
var validOrNot = $(selector, element.form).filter(function() {
return $(this).val();
}).length >= numberRequired;
if(!$(element).data('being_validated')) {
var fields = $(selector, element.form);
fields.data('being_validated', true);
fields.valid();
fields.data('being_validated', false);
}
return validOrNot;
}, "Please fill out at least 1 of these fields.");
The problem is that at least 1 field is filled works but the other required fields are being ignored.
Here is my form validation.
$("#clientaddressForm").validate({
submitHandler: function (form) {
// MY AJAX HERE
return false;
},
rules: {
addrcd: {
required: true
},
address1: {
required: true
},
areacode: {
required: true
},
zipcode: {
required: true
},
busname: {
required: function(element){
return $("#addrcd").val() != "R01" || $("#addrcd").val() != "R02" || $("#addrcd").val() != "R03";
}
},
tel: {
require_from_group: [1,".contactfillone"]
},
mobile: {
require_from_group: [1,".contactfillone"]
},
fax: {
require_from_group: [1,".contactfillone"]
},
},
messages: {
addrcd: {
required: "Please choose the address code",
},
address1: {
required: "Please enter the address",
},
areacode: {
required: "Please choose the area code",
},
zipcode: {
required: "Please choose the zip code",
},
busname: {
required: "Please enter the business/employment name",
}
},
errorPlacement: function(label, element) {
if(element.hasClass('web-select2') && element.next('.select2-container').length) {
label.addClass('mt-2 text-danger');
label.insertAfter(element.next('.select2-container'));
}
else{
label.addClass('mt-2 text-danger');
label.insertAfter(element);
}
},
highlight: function(element) {
$(element).parent().addClass('has-danger');
$(element).addClass('form-control-danger');
},
success: function(label,element) {
$(element).parent().removeClass('has-danger')
$(element).removeClass('form-control-danger')
label.remove();
}
});
}
What can I do to fix this?

jquery form.validate conditional required

I am trying to get a form to validate based on information that was submitted. Everything works fine if I make all fields required but my validation does not work as soon as I put in an if statement on the requirement.
Does not work:
var form = $( "#send_request_sms" );
form.validate({
rules: {
first_name: {
required: true
} ,
last_name: {
required: true
},
mobile: {
required: $('#email').val() ? false : true
},
email: {
required: $('#mobile').val() ? false : true
}
},
});
Works fine:
var form = $( "#send_request_sms" );
form.validate({
rules: {
first_name: {
required: true
} ,
last_name: {
required: true
},
mobile: {
required: true
},
email: {
required: true
}
},
});
Thanks for the help!
I generally use depends and works in my case
var form = $( "#send_request_sms" );
form.validate({
rules: {
first_name: {
required: true
} ,
last_name: {
required: true
},
mobile: {
required: {depends: function(element) {
return jQuery("#email").val() == '' ? true : false;
}
}
},
email: {
required: {depends: function(element) {
return jQuery("#mobile").val() == '' ? true : false;
}
}
}
}
});
I think you missed the order of email and mobile
var form = $( "#send_request_sms" );
form.validate({
rules: {
first_name: {
required: true
} ,
last_name: {
required: true
},
mobile: {
required: $('#mobile').val() ? false : true
},
email: {
required: $('#email').val() ? false : true
}
},
});
I would recommend moving the conditional statement outside the validate object.
e.g.
var form = $("#send_request_sms");
var mobileRequired = $('#email').val() ? false : true;
var emailedRequired = $('#mobile').val() ? false : true;
form.validate({
rules: {
first_name: {
required: true
},
last_name: {
required: true
},
mobile: {
required: mobileRequired
},
email: {
required: emailRequired
}
}
});

jQuery validation - callback method only for fields that fail validation

Example: http://jqueryvalidation.org/files/demo/custom-methods-demo.html.
The code:
validate({
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.appendTo( element.parent("td").next("td") );
},
rules: {
number: {
required:true,
minlength:3,
maxlength:15,
number:true
},
secret: "buga",
math: {
equal: 11
}
}
});
Question:
Is there a method that will ONLY fire if a field being validated actually fails to validate? errorPlacement above fires for every fields, regardless of validation result.
Thanks.
Here's what worked for me:
$('#invite').validate({
invalidHandler: function(event, validator) {
if (validator.numberOfInvalids()) {
for (i in validator.errorList) {
error = validator.errorList[i];
if (typeof error['element'] === 'object') {
fGrp = $(error['element']).closest('.form-group');
fGrp.toggleClass('has-error', true);
fGrp.find('.validationErrorMessage').html(error.message).toggleClass('nodisplay', false);
}
}
}
},
errorPlacement: function(error, element) { // Do nothing
},
rules: {
email: {
required: true,
email: true,
remote: {
url: '/admin/isgmail/',
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
data: {
email: function() {
return $('#email').val();
}
}
}
},
},
onkeyup: false,
onfocusout: false
});

errorPlacement can not be validate in first call but work fine in second click

using following function for validating but cant be work fine in first time but work fine in second time.
second function is used for validator and its not working fine when i first click the button but its work fine second time please help.
function saveValue(){
if (validateFormset().form()) { // validation perform
$('form#vendorActionForm').attr({methos: 'POST'});
$('form#vendorActionForm').attr({action: 'vendorAddressCreateUpdate.htm'});
$('form#vendorActionForm').submit();
}else{
$(".textMessgeClass").text("Please fill the highlighted field/s");
$(".textMessgeClass").addClass('errorClass');
$(".textMessgeClass").fadeIn("slow");
$(".textMessgeClass").delay(2000).fadeOut(2000);
}
}
function validateFormset(){
var validator = $("#vendorActionForm").validate({
rules: {
accountType: {
required:true
},
addressRank: {
required:true
},
street: {
required:true
},
city: {
required:true
},
state: {
required: true,
accept: "[a-zA-Z]+",
minlength: 2
},
region: {
required: true
},
zipCode: {
required: true,
rangelength: [3, 5]
},
contactName: {
required: true
},
mobile: {
required: false,
number: true,
minlength: 10
},
email: {
required: true,
email: true
},
email2: {
required: false,
email: true
},
email3: {
required: false,
email: true
}
},
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
$(element).filter(':not(.valid)').addClass("addressErrorClass");
},
success: function(error) {
$("#vendorActionForm").find('.valid').removeClass("addressErrorClass");
}
});
alert('AAAA');
alert(validator);
return validator;
}

Reset required fields - jQuery

I have some fields that I'm requiring depending on which button is clicked. The behavior I'm seeing though is not what I would expect nor desire. When I click one of the buttons, it sets the required fields as I'd like, but then if I click another button, it doesn't reset them for some reason.
Code is below. Thanks for any help you can provide:
function makeAllRequired() {
$("#SomeForm").validate({
rules: {
StartDate: {
required: true,
date: true
},
Name: {
required: true
}
},
errorElement: "div"
});
}
function makeSomeRequired() {
$("#SomeForm").validate({
rules: {
StartDate: {
required: true,
date: true
}
},
errorElement: "div"
});
}
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#SomeButtonOne").click(function () {
makeAllRequired();
$("#SomeForm").attr("action", "/here/there");
$("#SomeForm").submit();
});
$("#SomeButtonTwo").click(function () {
makeSomeRequired();
$("#SomeForm").attr("action", "/here/elsewhere");
$("#SomeForm").submit();
});
});
Try reseting the form before setting new required items: http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/Validator/resetForm
I'm not 100% sure but try removing the rules first before you apply new ones
function makeAllRequired() {
$("#SomeForm").rules("remove");
$("#SomeForm").validate({
rules: {
StartDate: {
required: true,
date: true
},
Name: {
required: true
}
},
errorElement: "div"
});
}
function makeSomeRequired() {
$("#SomeForm").rules("remove");
$("#SomeForm").validate({
rules: {
StartDate: {
required: true,
date: true
}
},
errorElement: "div"
});
}
