    <p>I am creating an MVC 3 web application. I want to use Data Annotations on my entity class and then use unobtrusive client side validation before making a post back to the server. This works fine when making a regular post. I get validation and the validation summary if any of the fields are not valid. However, I want to post back the information via ajax and json. How can I 'manually' validate the form on the client side first then make my ajax post back to the server. Below is a summarized version of my code.</p> <pre><code> public class Customer { [Required(ErrorMessage = "The customer's first name is required.")] public string FirstName { get; set; } [Required(ErrorMessage = "The customer's last name is required.")] public string LastName { get; set; } } &lt;% using (Html.BeginForm()) { %&gt; &lt;%: Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.FirstName, "First Name")%&gt; &lt;%: Html.TextBoxFor(model =&gt; model.FirstName, new { @class = "TextBox", id = "Customer.FirstName" })%&gt; &lt;%: Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.FirstName, "*")%&gt; &lt;%: Html.LabelFor(model =&gt; model.LastName, "Last Name")%&gt; &lt;%: Html.TextBoxFor(model =&gt; model.LastName, new { @class = "TextBox", id = "Customer.LastName" })%&gt; &lt;%: Html.ValidationMessageFor(model =&gt; model.LastName, "*")%&gt; &lt;div id="CustomerEditSave" class="Button CustomerEditButtons" style="margin-right:40px;"&gt; &lt;a href="#"&gt;Save&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;%: Html.ValidationSummary(true) %&gt; &lt;% } %&gt; </code></pre> <p>I have tried this code but it only validates the first name and does not display the validation summary.</p> <pre><code> $("#CustomerEditSave").click(function () { $(form).validate(); //Ajax call here }); </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
