Validatious 2.0

Easy form validation with unobtrusive JavaScript

Enable validation on a form

To enable validation on a form, simply add the class name validate to it.

...

Changing the class name

If you're already using validate for something else you can change which class Validatious looks for through v2.Form.autoValidateClass. This setting must be set in an external script, or inline script block after Validatious has been loaded.

v2.Form.autoValidateClass = 'process-it';

You can now enable validation on a form with this class name like this.

...

When you override the class name, the original "validate" will no longer trigger validation.

NB! When validating several forms on the same page, each form must have a unique id.
