I’m finding it hard to find out helpful information about ASP.NET MVC’s validation HTML helpers – Html.Validate and Html.ValidateFor.

Has anyone worked with these methods? what are they for?

    If there are situations where you
    don’t actually want a validation
    message to visually appear for each
    field (i.e. by using
    Html.ValidationMessage), but would
    rather allow a summary to be the sole
    source of validation error messages
    (i.e. by using
    Html.ValidationSummary), you still
    need some way to “trigger” the
    validation to occur for the specific
    fields you want it to.
    This can be achieved by using the
    Html.Validate/Html.ValidateFor<>
    methods within your view. Those
    helpers won’t render anything, but
    will simply register the specified
    field for client-side validation.
