preConfirm with inputValidator

Is it possible to use inputValidator with preConfirm? Looking at source code, it looks like inputValidator only runs if there’s input fields inserted using the default method but not if I’m inserting them using preConfirm.

I suppose it would be nice to have a postConfirm in this case?

The inputValidator is not called. I think it’d be good that this function gets called so the user can validate custom html aswell instead of having to use preConfirm.

As explained originally, the inputValidator is only used when the input is defined through the input property of swal. And it couldn’t be otherwise: if the input to the swal is defined through html, then swal doesn’t know which of the element(s) is to be considered an input.

So even though the user input could be wrong, the last then block gets called, which is not what I want since input is invalid:

The only (and the correct) way to stop the swal promise to resolve (i.e. to execute the then block), is to use the showValidationError(). So this is the expected behavior. Please also note that this latter is deprecated and you should use showValidationMessage() instead.

Does it answers your doubts?

Aha, sorry. The answer for your question is: inputValidator is working for swal2 input fields only (input parameter).

Inputs in the html parameter are totally custom and inputValidator can’t do magic and validate whatever you provides in custom HTML code.
