I have a contact form through which users would be able to contact me. I am
using django with ajax, and it works fine if there's no error. I would like
to show the errors if there's any like it displays above the input fields
and not just the errors, but both the input and the errors. It does however
differentiate between the success and error result, as the ajax request was
successful. But I need to display the actual form errors.

I would like to display the errors like the below as it normally does
without ajax:


​

How do I that? Your help will be very much appreciated. Thank you.

views:

def contact(request):
    if request.is_ajax() and request.POST:
        form = ContactForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            new_contact = form.save()
            data = {
                'result': 'success',
                'message': 'Message Sent.'
            }
            return JsonResponse(data)
        else:
            data = {
                'result': 'error',
                'message': 'Form invalid',
                'form': 'oops.'
            }
            return JsonResponse(data)
    else:
        form = ContactForm()
        return render(request, 'public_contact.html', {
            'form': form
        })

js:

contact_right_form.find('#submit').on('click', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    $.ajax({
        type: contact_right_form.attr('method'),
        url: '/contact/',
        data: contact_right_form.serialize(),
        dataType: 'json',
        success: function(data) {
            if ( data.result == 'success') {
                contact_right_message_sent.text(data.message);
                contact_right_message_sent.show();
            }
            else {
                contact_right_message_sent.text(data.message);
                contact_right_message_sent.show();
            }
        },
        error: function() {
            contact_right_message_sent.text('Sorry! Something went wrong.')
        }
    });
})
