Disable required validation by JavaScript

Question

I have a create form to create an object. The create model has some properties that are only visible (.hide, .show()) if a checkbox is checked and that are marked required (

Answer 1

Unobstrusive validation looks for this attribute data-val="true"

I guess, that if you do a $('#mycheckbox').data('val','false'), the validation will skip a item with that id.

Probably there is a more appropriate way to do it, but if not, take this.

cheers.
