Question

Script registrar loads jquery.validation.min.js even after

Html.Telerik().ScriptRegistrar().jQuery(false)

Is there any way to tell it not to do so?

Even when I try to load exactly what I need, doing this:

@Html.Telerik().ScriptRegistrar().jQuery(false).DefaultGroup(g =>
{
    g.Add("telerik.common.min.js");
    g.Add("telerik.tabstrip.min.js");
}

And if for example I have a telerik grid on the page it would load all necessary scripts including grid.min, grid.editing and jquery.validate.min.

I prefer to control it myself and instead of that simply to get an error, or non-functioning elements if I forgot to define the right scripts.

If I try to use this snippet:

@Html.Telerik().ScriptRegistrar().jQuery(false).Scripts(s =>
{
    s.Add("telerik.common.min.js");
...

It ignores useTelerikContentDeliveryNetwork="true" in web.config, and searches for scripts on local server. I still want to use CDN.

UPD: Is there actually a way to use telerik’s CDN sources but if for some reason they are down, load all the stuff from the project’s server?

As a further update to this answer for people coming from search engines: You can now remove jQuery Validation in addtion to jQuery by using something like:

@Html.Telerik().ScriptRegistrar().jQuery(false).jQueryValidation(false)
