+1 for turning off the onBlur validation We have done some UI testing on users trying to use a registration wizard which collects some mandatory data on step 1 and have found it unacceptable that validation bubbles are popping up whenever users jump between fields. Do I have to ditch custom side validation altogether or is there a workaround? I would like the custom side validation only happens when the user submits the form(fragment). Cheers, Borut
