Disable event validation

Question

I'm using Canvas in an ASP.net website. However, I'm unable to do any postbacks to the server I suspect because event validation is happening within possibly functions.js.

Since I'd like to use the built in event validation of .Net, how I can I remove or disable this in the theme?

Thanks!!

Hello,

If you are using ASP this for the Contact Forms and want to disable the Form Validation, you can simply remove the .contact-widget Class as it activated AJAX. Deleting this class will automatically fix your issue.

This will definitely work fine. Hope this Helps!

Thank you for your reply, however removing

from the page does not work. If I remove functions.js it will work, but everything else in the theme breaks. Is there a part of functions.js I should remove?

The error gets thrown on any post back at all (not just on the contact form).

Hi there I spent some more time debugging and I think I've found the issue. It looks to be something to do with the newsletter subscription in the footer (widget subscribe widget clearfix). Thanks for your help.

Hello,

Yes indeed. You will need to delete the following code from the js/functions.js File to disable the AJAX Form Submission:

SEMICOLON.widget.contactForm();
SEMICOLON.widget.subscription();
SEMICOLON.widget.quickContact();

This should definitely work fine. Hope this Helps!
