Hi Pandukish,

you can defer the updates to the viewmodel using the @save bind annotation like this: @save(vm.property, before='commandName')

e.g.

<textbox value="@load(vm.username) @save(vm.username, before='login') @validator..." />
<textbox value="@load(vm.password) @save(vm.password, before='login') @validator..." />
<button label="login" onClick="@command('login')" />

Now values will only be saved (and validate) right before the 'login' command is executed, preventing the command in case validation fails. see Data Binding Documentation

Alternatively you could look into form binding with form validation

If this does not cover what you are looking for, can you please provide a sample demonstrating your problem?

Cheers, Robert

Hi Pandukish,

I understand now... based on this thread I created the following running example on ZK fiddle which I think is going half the way, skipping the client side validation (during onBlur), until the button is pressed. But still the server responds with the error messages.

If that is somewhere near what you want I'll have a look how to trigger the client validation before the AJAX Request, saving the server round trip.

Regards Robert
