JavaScript popup message with Modal dialog do not show up

If Use JavaScript popup message is check in Advanced Settings, the popup message will not show up when used with Modal dialog edit or add page.

If it's an error message it simply stay on the current page without any warning.

Cannot simulate with the demo project.

I set up the Order_Details table and make it Add/Edit in modal dialog.

While i submit the form without input the value for the required field, the error message popup successfully.

Can you give us more detail about your settings?

You can also use F12->Console to see if there are any JavaScript Error.

I think it's because I use the Form_CustomValidate

If I put a message in $CustomError and return FALSE nothing show up

You are using the Server Event Form_CustomValidate(), but not the Client Event.

Have you enabled the option "Server-side" in [PHP] -> [General Options] -> [Validation]?

Yes both validation option are on (Server-side and Client-side)

If I turn off Use JavaScript popup message or remove the modal dialog it work fine, but not if both are turn on

There are no error in the Console, only navigation information

Also, if I test a form including a password field and I input an invalid value that will be rejected by Form_CustomValidate nothing show up
Now If I enter a value that is valid and I want to save it, I will receive a message the the password strength is too low.
I can enter very complex Password and it will still be rejected.
If I try to generate a strong password it will not show up, so I cannot copy it and it will also be rejected as being not strong enough.
This append if Javascript popup message is on and I use modal dialog. It's an Add Page and Confirm is selected.

Yes, finally I can reproduce this issue, too. The Javascript popup validation message is not shown up at all if using "Form_CustomValidate" server event in Modal dialog for Add/Copy and Edit Page.

The validation message is shown up properly when "Use Javascript popup message" option is disabled from "Tools" -> "Advanced Settings".

Please also check that a password field will have a strange behavior when this situation is happening

Cannot reproduce the issue regarding password strength as you mentioned.

I can only reproduce the issue of javascript popup message with dialog does not show up.

If you are a registered user of v2017, click Tools -> Update Template and try again.

Thank you. After updating the template, now the javascript popup error message when using "Form_CustomValidate" under "Client Scripts" section, is shown up properly from Modal dialog for "Add Page".
