I am using unobstructive jquery for remote validation. But now I want to validate the model which is attach to the view. The button is dynamically created (some times more than one button will be created dynamically and I want to do model validation if the user press any one of the button) — Sukesh Chand

var form = document.forms[0];
$(form).validate();
if(!$(form).valid()){
          alert("Error's in the module");
          return;
}
