Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - you will have to use the custom Javascript code in order to trigger the click event of the submit button and that should validate the form.

You can add your element click event call using custom JS and add the validation method to validate the form.

which validation method? is there any one for Toolsetforms?

I mean the Toolset Forms hook "cred_form_validate":
- https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_form_validate

But that runs on server side and you want to validate on frontend and for that you must use custom javascript jQuery.
