2007/1/24, Martin Atkins:
It would be useful to be able to mark certain submit buttons as
non-validating.
Use case: lots of the forms generated by one of my web-apps have a
"Cancel" button which simply causes the server to redirect the user back
to wherever they came from. When I use the WF2 extensions to mark
required fields, formats, etc the Cancel button won't submit until the
form is completed correctly. This doesn't make much sense from a UI
perspective.
Cannot you accomplish that by using two forms?
<form id="cancel" action="/cgi-bin/script" method="post"></form>
<form action="/cgi-bin/script" method="post">
<p>Name : <input name="name" required></p>
<p><input type="submit" name="ok" value="Save">
<input type="submit" name="cancel" value="Cancel" form="cancel"></p>
</form>
