DefaultSubmit plugin

Submit the form if all fields are valid after validating

Usage

The following piece of code is the starting point to use the DefaultSubmit plugin:
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/vendors/@form-validation/umd/styles/index.min.css" />
</head>
<body>
<form id="demoForm" method="POST">
...
<!-- Do NOT use name="submit" or id="submit" for the Submit button -->
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/es6-shim/0.35.3/es6-shim.min.js"></script>
<script src="/vendors/@form-validation/umd/bundle/popular.min.js"></script>
<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(e) {
FormValidation.formValidation(
document.getElementById('demoForm'),
{
fields: {
...
},
plugins: {
defaultSubmit: new FormValidation.plugins.DefaultSubmit(),
...
},
}
);
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
The sample code above assumes that the FormValidation files are placed inside the vendors directory. You might need to change the path depending on where you place them on the server.
Instead of submitting the form, you can use an Ajax request to send the form data to the server.
If you want the form to be validated automatically when pressing its Submit button, use the SubmitButton plugin

Using the npm packages

If you are using a bundler such as Webpack, Rollup, Parcel or Vite, etc., to bundle your application, then it's recommended to use the FormValidation NPM packages.
  • Install the packages:
$ npm install @form-validation/bundle
$ npm install @form-validation/plugin-default-submit
  • Import and use the DefaultSubmit plugin:
import { formValidation } from '@form-validation/bundle/popular';
import { DefaultSubmit } from '@form-validation/plugin-default-submit';
formValidation(
document.getElementById('demoForm'),
{
fields: {
...
},
plugins: {
defaultSubmit: new DefaultSubmit(),
...
},
}
);
