validType + combogrid

[rezzonico]

Hi all,

I have a edatagrid with two fields.
The first field is a "combogrid", the second field is a "validatebox".
On both fields I use "validType" with remote option:
validType: 'remote["/cgi-bin/dovalidate.cgi", ""]'
All works as expected.
The only problem is that on "combogrid" the program "dovalidate.cgi" is executed twice.
Is it possible to avoid this ?
Is it allowed to use "validType" with a "combogrid" ?

Here the code:

Thanks for any help.

Please try to use the async 'remote' validate type instead.

Code:

(function($){
	$.extend($.fn.validatebox.defaults.rules, {
		remote: {
			validator: function(value, param){
				var target = this;
				if (target.result == undefined){
					target.result = true;
				}
				if (!target.validated){
					target.validated = true;
					var data = {};
					data[param[1]] = value;
					$.ajax({
						url: param[0],
						data: data,
						async: true,
						cache: false,
						success: function(data){
							if ($(target).parent().length){
								target.result = (data == 'true');
								$(target).validatebox('validate');								
							}
						},
						complete: function(){
							target.validated = false;
						}
					});
				}
				return target.result;
			},
			message: 'Please fix this field.'
		}
	})
})(jQuery);

Hi stworthy,

thanks a lot for your help.
After adding your code the program is executed only once but I see two other problems:

1) When I click on the field the message "Please fix this fileld" appears for a short time, even if the program "dovalidate.cgi" return "true".
You can see this selecting the following link:
http://195.144.40.170/EEE/index.html


2) When (after selecting the first line) I select the second line, the error "TypeError: _48d is undefined" appears.

Is it possible to fix these two problems ?

Thanks

You can modify the async 'remote' validator freely to meet your requirement. Please refer to the updated code above.
