Validating Dynamically added controls in ASP.NET MVC

[Kevin]

I can't get validation to work.  I am new to ASP.NET MVC.  I am not sure if this is related to the Telerik Tabstrip or not.  I have see similar posts about validation not working with multiple tabs or with loadFromContent tabs, etc...

None of these solutions work for me.  I have one added complication.  Not only are my controls in a partial view within a tab, the tab is dynamically added. So all of my controls that I want to validate are dynamically created.  Server side validation works, but not client-side.

My model has data annotations like "[Required]", and I have controls like Html.ValidationSummary and Html.ValidationMessageFor (for each field in your model) and I've been told it's supposed to work like magic! But it doesn't :(

Any ideas why client-side validation is not working? Do I have to do something special because the controls were created dynamically?

Steve:

All you need to do is hook up the validations after the content is done loading.

On the tab, hook up the Client Event OnContentLoad.  Then in a javascript file just  place the following:

function onContentLoad(e) {
    $.validator.unobtrusive.parse("form");
}

The validation framework should be all hooked up.
