Validating a Form without redirect - php

Question

I created app with yii and I need to load a view form in Fancy-box.
I did that but my problem is when I click on the submit button the form redirects me to the controller action without validating the form.
How to validate the form without the redirect inside Fancy-box?
My view:
<?php
$config = array(
);
$this->widget('application.extensions.fancybox.EFancyBox', array(
'target'=>'#getaction',
'config'=>$config,));
echo CHtml::link('Add Section',array('section/create'),array('id'=>'getaction'));
?>
FormView _from from call from another view
<div class="form">
<?php $form=$this->beginWidget('CActiveForm', array(
'id'=>'section-form',
'enableAjaxValidation'=>true,
)); ?>
<p class="note">Fields with <span class="required">*</span> are required.</p>
<?php echo $form->errorSummary($model); ?>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'name'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'name',array('size'=>60,'maxlength'=>255)); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model,'name'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row buttons">
<?php echo CHtml::submitButton($model->isNewRecord ? 'Create' : 'Save'); ?>
</div>
<?php $this->endWidget(); ?>
</div><!-- form -->
Controller :
public function actionCreate()
{
$model=new Section;
if(isset($_POST['Section']))
{
$model->attributes=$_POST['Section'];
if($model->validate())
//// Do Som code here
$this->redirect(array('view','id'=>$model->id));
}
$this->render('create',array(
'model'=>$model,
));
}

Answer 1

the problem was fixed by my bro seenivasan on Yii Forum , so I will share the code here
_form.php
<?php $form=$this->beginWidget('CActiveForm', array(
'id'=>'section-form',
'enableAjaxValidation'=>true,
//'enableClientValidation'=>true,
'clientOptions'=>array('validateOnSubmit'=>true), //This is very important
)); ?>
<p class="note">Fields with <span class="required">*</span> are required.</p>
<?php echo $form->errorSummary($model); ?>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'name'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'name',array('size'=>60,'maxlength'=>64)); ?>
<?php echo $form->error($model,'name'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row buttons">
<?php echo CHtml::submitButton($model->isNewRecord ? 'Create' : 'Save'); ?>
</div>
<?php $this->endWidget(); ?>
In controller
public function actionCreate()
{
$model=new Section;
// Uncomment the following line if AJAX validation is needed
$this->performAjaxValidation($model);//You have enabled ajax validation. You have to uncomment this line.
if(isset($_POST['Section']))
{
$model->attributes=$_POST['Section'];
if($model->save())
$this->redirect(array('view','id'=>$model->id));
}
if(Yii::app()->request->getIsAjaxRequest())
echo $this->renderPartial('_form',array('model'=>$model),true,true);//This will bring out the view along with its script.
else $this->render('create',array(
'model'=>$model,
));
}

Just add 'enableClientValidation'=>true, in the array inside the beginwidget.
