Easy form validation with unobtrusive JavaScript

Negate validators

It's possible to apply the inverse of a validator to a field. By prefixing a validator name with not_, the field will be valid when the validator fails.

Note: default error messages makes no sense when validators are inverted like this, so a custom error message should be applied.

Example

In the following example a user can enter his address, but we want to make sure the user doesn't enter an email address.
