# Validation event
By default, forms are validated on submit, triggered by the user clicking the submit button or pressing enter when a form input is focused (option `onsubmit`). In addition, once a field was highlighted as being invalid, it is validated whenever the user types something in the field (option `onkeyup`). When the user enters something invalid into a valid field, it is also validated when the field loses focus (option `onblur`).

When the user enters something invalid into a valid field, it is also validated when the field loses focus (option `onfocusout`).
