Indicates whether the button causes validation to be performed on any controls that require validation. (Default: Selected)
Note If an error occurs while validating the controls, then the button does not fire its event.Confirmation message
A confirmation message to display when the button is clicked.
A confirmation message can prevent the user from accidentally performing an action that may result in data loss.
For example, when the user clicks 'Delete customer' button by mistake, it could delete the customer and all associated data from the system without having a chance to undo the action. But you can prevent that mistake by setting the following confirmation message on clicking the button: "Are you sure you want to delete the customer account details? Click Cancel to stop the deletion. Click Yes to confirm the deletion."
Specify the message using a dynamic or a static value.
- Form control: The selected form field appears at runtime, where you can enter the message.
- Form variable: The message saved in the form variable is available for use with this form; however, you can change the message by changing the variable value.
- Global variable: The message is available for use with different forms within a site. If you change the value of the variable, the change is applied to all forms that use this variable.
