validate with required impossible?

[UJankeMember]

if i try to validate a jqxdatetimeinput with a validator like this:

rules: [
{ input: ‘#jqxdatetimeinput’, message: ‘Date is required!’, action: ‘valuechanged’, rule: ‘required’ }
]

it never ever will validate sucessfull. Even when a correct date is inserted.

Also the method xxxx.jqxValidator(‘validate’) don’t works.

Any idears?

Hi Uwe,

‘required’ validation rule can be used for empty input fields. jqxDateTimeInput always has a value, so that rule cannot be used with that widget. In addition, your “action” is “valuechanged” so the rule will be tested after the jqxDateTimeInput’s value is changed.

For validation, see: defaultfunctionality.htm.

The demo demonstrates that the ‘validate’ method works, too.
