Question

In my asp mvc application I use standard client side validation (DataAnnotations + MicrosoftAjax.js + MicrosoftMvcValidation.js).
I need to show some popup message (jGrowl) after successful/unsuccessful client side validation (so I can’t use ModelState.IsValid).
So I search for some standard flag which indicates client side validation status. Does anybody know about it? Does it exist?

I don’t know if MicrosoftMvcValidation exposes such function but using jQuery you might check if any of the form fields contain errors:

var isValid = $('#formId .input-validation-error').length > 0;
