Kendo DropDownList validation in Grid

Question

I'm revisiting an issue I raised on the Kendo forums (which are now read only). Here's the original thread.

The solution proposed by Jon suggests:

If you pull out the validation message out of the span, it will show up (use jQuery to append it to the parent element).

I've got the validation working - I just can't get the validation message to display (at least where it's visible). I'm not sure what to append where.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Answer 1

You should append the validation tooltip element <span class="k-invalid-msg" data-for="name"></span> to the editor container. Where "name" corresponds to the name of your editor input.
