MVC3 Validate Email not generating any markup

Hi

I'm using the built in membership provider with MVC3. I've added the AspnetUser entity to my Lightspeed model in the designer. Validate Presence is set to true for the UserName property of AspnetUser and Validate Email is set to true because the user name needs to actually be an email address.

The validate presence works fine but the email format validation isn't working. The generated code is:

[ValidatePresence(Message="Please enter your email address")]
[ValidateLength(0, 256)]
[ValidateEmailAddress(Message="Please enter your valid email address")]
private string _userName;

The generated HTML from @HTML.TextBoxFor is:

<input id="user_UserName" class="input-block-level" type="text" value="" name="user.UserName" data-val-required="Please enter your email address" data-val-length-max="256" data-val-length="UserName length must be between 0 and 256" data-val="true">

• no validation attributes for the email format. I guess I've missed something somewhere?

No you havnt missed anything - we dont translate ValidateEmail into DataAnnotation based markup.

From http://www.mindscapehq.com/documentation/lightspeed/Building-Web-Applications-/Building-ASPNET-MVC-Applications:

The following LightSpeed validations are surfaced:

·         ValidatePresenceAttribute

·         ValidateLengthAttribute

·         ValidateRangeAttribute (int and double ranges only)

·         ValidateFormatAttribute
