Form Builder and Validation methods
Posted: Thu Jan 23, 2014 1:00 am
Hi
I'm having a bit of an ordeal with HTML5 constraints validation kicking in because the form elements generated in the template automatically have the 'required' attribute rendered in all the required tags.
This is causing a kind of half-way house of validation where the browser does one bit, and the JS or Form Builder server-side is doing the other. It's leading to a messy user experience. The HTML5 validate only seems to work on the <input> tags.
Is there a way to stop FB rendering the 'required' attribute? Or, a way to stop the browser kicking in with it's own? This example is managing it:

thanks

ok so <form novalidate> will stop the browser interfering but the module seems to put its own <form> header in...
