title: How can I force my MVC client side validation when updating values in script
body: <p>If I have a required field on my form within my MVC3 page, and try submitting the form, the validation fires and the input control is given a light-red background color (fill) and it also shows a validation message.  If I type in the input control, it will detect the value and remove both the coloring and validation method.  This is how it should work.</p>
  
  <p>In my case, I have mailing address fields, most of them required.  I have an option on my site to select an address in a drop down list. When an address is selected by the user, all the address fields filled in using client side javascript.  However, when I do this, my validation message and color aren't going away.  So I need to somehow force the validation check.</p>
  
  <p>How is this done?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
