I have a form in a modal with some required fields, but when I hit submit the form just reloads and I don't get any message for validation that I am using for submitting the form jQuery, as below :
<script>
$('#InfroTextSubmit').click(function(){
$('#InfroText').submit();
});
</script>
The Twitter Bootstrap Modal Code is :
<!-- Modal1 -->
<div id="myModal1" class="modal hide fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
<h3 id="myModalLabel">Edit Introduction</h3>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<form id="InfroText" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="InfroText" value="1"/>
<table>
<tr><td>Title</td><td><input type="text" name="title" style="width:300px" required="require"/></td></tr>
<tr><td>Introudction</td><td><textarea name="contect" style="width:300px;height:200px"></textarea></td></tr>
</table>
</form>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button class="btn" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">Close</button>
<button class="btn btn-primary" id="InfroTextSubmit">Save changes</button>
</div>
</div>
<script>
$('#InfroTextSubmit').click(function(){
$('#InfroText').submit();
});
</script>
So how can i Validate the Form and not let the model close and reload if something is wrong with the form ?
Regards,

Reset to default 8You don't have to add any script for validating form text fields if you added the required attribute.
Try this
<input type="text" name="title" style="width:300px" required="required"/>
or
<input type="text" name="title" style="width:300px" required/>
You can add "data-dismiss=modal"
to the InfroTextSubmit button, and then use 'return false' on the '#InfroTextSubmit
' click function to prevent the form from closing. If the form is valid you call 'submit()'.
Button code:
<button class="btn btn-primary" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true" id="save">Save changes</button>
Click function:
$('#save').click(function(){
if ($('#myField1').val()==="") {
// invalid
$('#myField1').next('.help-inline').show();
return false;
}
else {
// submit the form here
$('#InfroText').submit();
return true;
}
});
There a several different approaches to the validation itself.
