Web designer validation not triggered

delonge
over 7 years ago

Hello,

We have one email address in the table person, that should be validated. If an invalid email address is entered, a message should be displayed below that field. We added a Validation node under the field for that matter.

 

However this field also has some validation in the back-end (using the Formatting Script, see image below) and the validation in the Web Designer is not triggered. 

 

Instead of the validation defined in the Web Designer being used (simple message below the invalid field), this Formatting Script validation is being used to display a pop up with the error message.

I don't want a pop up to be displayed each time a validation error occurs from our Web application. For the web application I only want to display the error message below the field.

Is this possible?

Why does the Formatting Script overrides the Validation node specified in the Web Designer?

Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hi Hanno,

    Thank you for your response.

    Your solution could indeed help me.

    However, we have multiple email fields in our application ( used for much more than just saving data), and creating a custom field to temporarily hold each email address could soon become tough to manage and hard to debug.

    So for now we'll deactivate the "Formatting Script" rule. This way the email validation will occur only in the web application with our custom rules.

    Thank you and best regards!
