Kendo DropDownList validation in Grid

votes

I'm revisiting an issue I raised on the Kendo forums (which are now read only). Here's the original thread.

The solution proposed by Jon suggests:

If you pull out the validation message out of the span, it will show up (use jQuery to append it to the parent element).

I've got the validation working - I just can't get the validation message to display (at least where it's visible). I'm not sure what to append where.

Any advice is much appreciated.

You should append the validation tooltip element <span class="k-invalid-msg" data-for="name"></span> to the editor container. Where "name" corresponds to the name of your editor input. Docs: columns.editor link - sasheto
Hi. Thanks for the tip. I thought I'd tried that, but I'd missed off the data-for= All is good now. - Mat
@sasheto it's worth putting that as the answer so it can be accepted, this is showing as unanswered. - Martin
@Mat, it's worth copying the question into the Stackoverflow question rather than linking. - Martin
@Martin Thanks for the suggestion, I put this as answer :) - sasheto
