[Vtigercrm-developers] vtiger 6.5: Examples of using Validation Engine without using button type="submit"?

[Mariusz Krzaczkowski]

Hi Alan,
use the validationEngine('validate') function, it returns true or false.
Just be careful because it works once while validating, then it returns
null.
Here's an example of using it after clicking on a normal button:
