If two separate input fields need to be validated together as well as individually, what is the best way to do this? For example, I have a 'date' field and 'time' field. Both fields need to have valid date & time, cannot be empty, and in addition, the value of the two fields combined, cannot occur in the past.
I've tried it with 'groups' as well as a custom validation method via 'addMethod', but the error display mechanism doesn't behave similar to how the other validation fields. Normally after the error is shown for a specific field, the error highlight will disappear as the user fixes the data without leaving the input field (ie, change/blur events haven't been fired). In my case, fixing one of the fields still leaves the other in the group with the error highlight when I am expecting both to lose it as they were highlighted together as soon as custom validation rule failed. The only way to remove the error highlight is if you switch to that field and have it lose focus. Is there a way to have it so that that both fields in the group lose the highlight as soon as either is corrected and meets the constraint rule? The custom validation method returns true or false depending on whether the two fields meet the specific constraint and the only option that I provide to the validator is 'submitHandler' so I haven't changed any of the default error display mechanisms. All of validation rules are set as classes on the form's input fields. Thanks, Shiney
