Allowing just white space in 'Required' data annotation

Question

I am using the [Required] data annotation on a string. This works just as intended, however it deems an input just consisting of white space to be invalid.

Is there any way to change this?

Answer 1

There is an AllowEmptyStrings property on the RequiredAttribute. See if that helps.
