Description

How can I show the validation tooltip in Kendo UI only when you move the mouse cursor over the input that failed to validate?

Solution

The following example demonstrates how to achieve the desired scenario.

    <style scoped>
      .k-invalid-msg
      {
        display: none !important;
      }
      .k-invalid
      {
        border: 1px solid red;
      }
      .k-widget > span.k-invalid,
      input.k-invalid
      {
        border: 1px solid red !important;
      }
      .k-textbox {
        width: 11.8em;
      }
      .demo-section {
        width: 700px;
      }
      #tickets {
        width: 510px;
        height: 323px;
        margin: 0 auto;
        padding: 10px 20px 20px 170px;
        background: url('../content/web/validator/ticketsOnline.png') transparent no-repeat 0 0;
      }
      #tickets h3 {
        font-weight: normal;
        font-size: 1.4em;
        border-bottom: 1px solid #ccc;
      }
      #tickets ul {
        list-style-type: none;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
      }
      #tickets li {
        margin: 7px 0 0 0;
      }
      label {
        display: inline-block;
        width: 90px;
        text-align: right;
      }
      .required {
        font-weight: bold;
      }
      .accept, .status {
        padding-left: 90px;
      }
      .valid {
        color: green;
      }
      .invalid {
        color: red;
      }
      span.k-tooltip {
        margin-left: 6px;
      }
    </style>
