(abstract)
So, I have a form with multiple submit buttons. The different
submission types require different subsets of data input within a
single form, and therefore have different requirements as to what is
required. All of the examples for the validation plugin involve all
values in a form being validated on the form's submission.
I made an object of the following form to specify what validations
should occur dependent on the submit button.
{
"name of form(1...N)": {
"name of submit-button(1...N)": {
"name of field(1...N)" {
[validation conditions]
}
}
}
}
I want to validate on submission, but I've come to a mind circus about
how to accomplish that. Essentially I want to mark fields as required
depending on whether the validation event was triggered by a specific
submit button. I'll probably end up creating crafty closure code to
work through this, but I believe this would probably be useful as a
use case for future development.
