Symfony Javascript Form Validation

Question

So I have a form on my website that will submit a name and email address. I want to submit them with ajax which is simple to do, but I wanted to verify that both fields are filled in and that the email is in the correct email form.

Basically I want to run some client side validation on the fields before submitting it via ajax. Does anyone know how to do this with symfonys ajax remote helper methods?

Just throwing this out there: docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation jQuery Validate. No AJAX, just good validation used by a large amount of people. Supports email :) — Tyler Carter

I've used that before. But I am interested in using JavaScript to validate a form prior to submitting it with AJAX, specifically with symfony. Thanks though! — Danny

If you are using Symfony 1.2 and sfForms, you can use a plugin called sfJqueryFormValidationPlugin:

http://www.symfony-project.org/plugins/sfJqueryFormValidationPlugin/0_9_1

It takes care of producing the right Javascript to validate fields. In your case, it'll just be checking that the fields have been filled.

This link has a more thorough tutorial:

Hope this helps :)
