MaxLength Attribute not generating client-side validation attributes

Question

I have a curious problem with ASP.NET MVC3 client-side validation. I have the following class:

public class Instrument : BaseObject
{
    public int Id { get         


        

Answer 1

I tried this for all the inputs in my html document(textarea,inputs,etc) that had the data-val-length-max property and it works correctly.

$(document).ready(function () {
    $(":input[data-val-length-max]").each(function (index, element) {
        var length = parseInt($(this).attr("data-val-length-max"));
        $(this).prop("maxlength", length);
    });
});
