MVC Client Side Validation without preventing form submit

Question

I have a form that allows the user to edit my model. They can save the data, as well as publish it. When the user hits save I want to go ahead and save the form even if its doe

Answer 1

simply override the form submit and that should disable the validation.

$(function () {
    $("form").submit(function () {
        if (!$(this).valid()) {
            //form is not valid         
            return true;
        }
    });
});

You dont need the check there obviously and can just return true, thats just to show you how to check if its valid.
