Cancel button on form to bypass required fields

Question

whats the best way to implement a cancel button on the form, when there are one or more required fields on the same form? The required behaviour is that the click event of the cancel button should override the required field validation on the form. Thanks Alok

This is the straight forward way to skip the form validations

You can use a!buttonWidgetSubmit and mention skipValidation:true() so that the form will get submitted even after it requires some mandatory fields to be populated.

(Just here to point out that the original question was from early 2012, long before SAIL forms were available to use - so the standard suggestion of "set skipValidation to true()" doesn't really apply...)
