Re: cakePHP 3.0-RC1, turning off HTML5 browser validation globally on user side ???

Never mind my solution then. It would need a little bit more knowledge of how CakePHP works.

Even though it would exactly do what you want to.

Try to read the wiki documentation and study the plugin code more, that might clarify it a bit.

But note that this is an extended FormHelper, not the core one.

Hello Mark !

Thanks for this.  At first glance I do not see any difference between the #L16 and the #L44 version.

I have loaded the #L44 version as /src/View/Helper/FornHelper.php.

I do not know where to place
Configure::write('FormConfig.novalidate', 'true');

I'm a cakePHP novice. Can you give me more detailed instruction ?
What I would like to achieve is to have the "novalidate" active for any forms that might appear in the application.

How and where do I set up "Configure::write('FormConfig.novalidate', 'true');" so that it is called only on start-up ?

Regards

you can actually set a config on the user side when using sth similar I did in my plugin (since 2.x).

You can either use my Tools plugin directly, or copy and paste the relevant part:

https://github.com/dereuromark/cakephp-tools/blob/cake3/src/View/Helper/FormHelper.php#L16

https://github.com/dereuromark/cakephp-tools/blob/cake3/src/View/Helper/FormHelper.php#L44

You can disable it globally or locally via

Configure::write('FormConfig.novalidate', 'true');

then :)

No need to mess with any templates in this case.

Hello José

Thanks for the reference.  If I interpret the manual properly, I think it wants me to store the custom widget under the /vendor/cakephp/cakephp/src/View/Widget/ directory structure  ? 

If this is correct then would the custom widget be wiped out every time I did a "composer update" ?

 I found this to be the case when I had managed to default the form submission to "formnovalidate " using a different technique under the /vendor structure.

 In the FormHelper.php function widget() I added the line
unset($data['required']); // turn off HTML5 browser validation
after the line
unset($data['secure']);

This was replace to the original (or updated) version when I did the "composer update".

What I was really hoping for was perhaps a method of setting a /config option on the user side.

I have finally found the method to turn off browser validation so that cakePHP can take control of the validation instead. 
 
This works for me. 
 
    <?= $this->Form->button(__('Submit'), array('formnovalidate' => true)) ?> 
 
Rather than do this for every Form, is there any way to set this option for Forms globally on the user side ?
