    copied!<p>I have two email fields on a form to validate that the user entered his email properly. However, jquery.validate.unobtrusive always shows an error message even when the email is entered twice correctly.</p> <p>This is an ASP.Net MVC 3 project, and I am using the Compare Attribute on the second email field.</p> <p>Here is the html code of that region on my web page:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="editor-field"&gt; &lt;input class="text-box single-line" data-val="true" data-val-length="The field Adresse de courriel must be a string with a maximum length of 50." data-val-length-max="50" data-val-required="L&amp;amp;#39;adresse de courriel doit &amp;amp;#234;tre sp&amp;amp;#233;cifi&amp;amp;#233;e" id="Requerant_Individu_Courriel" name="Requerant.Individu.Courriel" type="text" value="" /&gt; &lt;span class="field-validation-valid" data-valmsg-for="Requerant.Individu.Courriel" data-valmsg-replace="true"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="editor-field"&gt; &lt;input class="text-box single-line" data-val="true" data-val-equalto="Les deux adresses de courriel doivent &amp;amp;#234;tre identiques" data-val-equalto-other="*.Courriel" data-val-required="L&amp;amp;#39;adresse courriel de confirmation doit &amp;amp;#234;tre sp&amp;amp;#233;cifi&amp;amp;#233;e" id="Requerant_Individu_ConfirmCourriel" name="Requerant.Individu.ConfirmCourriel" type="text" value="" /&gt; &lt;span class="field-validation-valid" data-valmsg-for="Requerant.Individu.ConfirmCourriel" data-valmsg-replace="true"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>I noticed this attribute on the second email input: data-val-equalto-other="*.Courriel" I am wondering whether that asterisk is correct.</p> <p>And here is what I have in my model:</p> <pre><code> [Required(ErrorMessage = "L'adresse de courriel doit être spécifiée")] [StringLength(50)] [Display(Name = "Adresse de courriel")] public String Courriel { get; set; } [Compare("Courriel", ErrorMessage = "Les deux adresses de courriel doivent être identiques")] [Required(ErrorMessage = "L'adresse courriel de confirmation doit être spécifiée")] [Display(Name = "Retapez votre adresse de courriel")] public string ConfirmCourriel { get; set; } </code></pre> <p>Anyone has ever encountered that problem? Suggestions?</p> <p>Note: I am using jQuery 1.6.3 and jQuery Validation Plugin 1.8.1</p>
