如何在jQuery对话框中验证ViewModel?

我的AddressEditViewModel有一堆标记为 [Required(ErrorMessage="My Error Message Here")] [DisplayName("etc")] . DisplayName属性工作:

<%: Html.LabelFor(model => model.Field) %>

,我认为所需的属性也可以工作,但我不知道如何提供表单反馈(jqueryui对话框)。此表单通过$.ajax()提交,并以action方法提交:

[HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Edit(AddressEditViewModel address)
    {
        var addressToEdit = dc.Addresses.FirstOrDefault(x => x.AddressID == address.AddressIDEdit);

        if (ModelState.IsValid)
        {
            //make sure there is at least one active address
            if (!address.ActiveEdit && (addressToEdit != null && addressToEdit.Active))
            {
                if (dc.Addresses.Where(x => x.ProfileID == addressToEdit.ProfileID).Count(x => x.Active) == 1)
                {
                    address.ActiveEdit = true;
                }
            }

            try
            {
                //TryUpdateModel SUCKS!~
                //use valueinjecter
                addressToEdit.InjectFrom<VMToAddress>(address);

                dc.SubmitChanges();
            }
            catch (Exception)
            {
                return View(address);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            return View(address); //activate the red borders around textboxes
        }

        return Content("Ok");
    }

public class VMToAddress : LoopValueInjection
{
    protected override string TargetPropName(string sourcePropName)
    {
        if (sourcePropName.EndsWith("Edit"))
        {
            return sourcePropName.RemoveSuffix("Edit"); 
        }
        else if (sourcePropName.EndsWith("Create"))
        {
            return sourcePropName.RemoveSuffix("Create");
        }
        else
        {
            return sourcePropName;
        }
    }
}

ModelState.IsValid返回true,即使 address.RequiredField 为空。 SubmitChanges()

Html.ValidationMessageFor(...) 因为我不想打电话——只要边界)。

closeEditForm Content("Ok") 无型号

$('#editform').submit(function () {
    $(this).ajaxSubmit({
        target: '#editform', //this will allow validation classes to be added, etc
        success: closeEditForm //this will close the edit form if the response text is "Ok"
    });
    return false;
});

我提交的表格如下:

$("#dialog-address-edit").dialog({
            ...lots of dialog settings
            buttons: {
                'Save': function () {
                    $('#editform').submit();
