I am using bootstrap modal form calling a partialview from Index.cshtml.
It's work fine until I use Select2. The same partialview working fine without Select2. The same Select2 also working fine with the same partialview.

But problem is that when using all things like bootstrap,partialview and Select2, model validation not working.

What I have tried:

HTML
<pre> src="/lib/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!--For modal form-->
<div id="modal-placeholder"></div>
<div class="modal fade" id="customer_model" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="customer_modelLabel"
     data-bs-backdrop="static" data-bs-keyboard="true" aria-hidden="true">
    <div class="modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered" id="movableDialog" role="document">
        <div class="modal-content" style="background-color: white; color: black; width:800px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto">
            <div class="modal-header" style="background-color: #337ab7; color: white; cursor: move">

                    else if (ViewBag.action == "Delete")
                    { <h6 class="modal-title" id="customer_modelLabel" style="color:darkorange">Shown Customer will be deleted.<br />Please confirm?</h6> }
                    else
                    { <h6 class="modal-title" id="customer_modelLabel" style="text-align:center;">Create New Customer</h6> }

The first thing that jumps out at me is that you're adding the required attribute to the list in code, after applying Select2 to the list.

You need to mark the model property as [Required] instead. That way, the validation attributes will already be emitted in the rendered HTML, and you won't need to add them via Javascript.

Also, you're removing the selected attribute from all of the list options every time the list changes. The user will never be able to select anything from the list!

The 'required' attrubute was added for testing. Without required it also behave the same.
In Model, it is already marked as required like below: -
...
[Display(Name = "CUST_GROUP")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Please enter Customer Group")]
[MaxLength(20)]
public string CUST_GROUP { get; set; }
...
"Also, you're removing the selected attribute from all of the list options every time the list changes. The user will never be able to select anything from the list!"
I think it is required when user select the option. If user select any of the listed item and again select the placeholder it is going to validadte. But my concern is that when user press 'save' button it must be validate. I also set the control break in my controller it goes and modelstate invalidated then it come back to partialview and validation message not displaying. However it works perfect without Select2.

1 solution

This code you can used in MultiModal form in one page .




//On load content
if ($('.select').length > 0) {
$(".select").select2({
minimumResultsForSearch: -1,
width: '100%'
});
}
//Fix select2 if click on modal edit
$('.edit-icon').on('click', function () {
var modal = $(this).attr('data-bs-target');
$(".select").select2({
minimumResultsForSearch: -1,
width: '100%',
dropdownParent: $(modal)
});
});
//when close Modal return to default
$('.close').on('click', function () {
$(".select").select2({
minimumResultsForSearch: -1,
width: '100%'
});
});
