I also had the same issue  I solved the problem by adding a ng-submit which sets the variable submitted to true    lt form name  form  ng-submit  submitted   true  novalidate gt   lt div gt       lt span ng-if  submitted  amp  amp  form email  error email  gt invalid email address lt  span gt        lt span ng-if  submitted  amp  amp  form email  error required  gt required lt  span gt       lt label gt email lt  label gt       lt input type  email  name  email  ng-model  user email  required gt   lt  div gt    lt div gt       lt span ng-if  submitted  amp  amp  form name  error required  gt required lt  span gt       lt label gt name lt  label gt       lt input type  text  name  name  ng-model  user name  required gt   lt  div gt    lt button ng-click  form  valid  amp  amp  save user   gt Save lt  button gt   lt  form gt    I like the idea of using  submitted  I think I ve to upgrade Angular to 1 3

 if   form  valid  return       Authentication emailLogin data              so  now  in the CSS  you can do stuff like    item valid  before      float  right      font-family   Ionicons

A complete solution to the validate form with angularjs  HTML is as follows     lt div ng-app  areaApp  ng-controller  addCtrler  gt           lt form class  form-horizontal  name  fareainfo  gt               lt div class  form-group  gt                     lt label for  input-areaname  class  col-sm-2 control-label  gt Area Name    lt  label gt                     lt div class  col-sm-4  gt                         lt input type  text  class  form-control  name  name  id  input-areaname  ng-model  Area Name  placeholder    required gt                         lt span class  text-danger  ng-show   fareainfo  submitted    fareainfo name  dirty   amp  amp  fareainfo name  error required  gt  Field is required lt  span gt                     lt  div gt               lt  div gt                lt div class  col-sm-12  gt                     lt button type  button  class  btn btn-primary pull-right  ng-click  submitAreaInfo    gt Submit lt  button gt                lt  div gt           lt  form gt       lt  div gt    AngularJS App and Controller is as follows  var areaApp   angular module  areaApp         areaApp controller  addCtrler   function   scope         scope submitAreaInfo   function               if   scope fareainfo  valid               after Form is Valid          else              scope fareainfo  setSubmitted                            Important Code Segments   ng-app  areaApp  ng-controller  addCtrler  Defines the angular app and controller ng-show   fareainfo  submitted    fareainfo name  dirty   amp  amp  fareainfo name  error required   Above condition ensure that whenever a user first sees the form there s no any validation error on the screen and after a user does changes to the form it ensure that validation message show on the screen   name  is the name attribute of the input element   scope fareainfo  valid Above code  segment check whether the form is valid whenever a user submits the form   scope fareainfo  setSubmitted    Above code  segment ensures that all validation messages are displayed on the screen whenever a user submits the form without doing anything

I can come up with 2 ways to achieve it   The first one is to remove novalidate to enable the browser s validation   Second  you can disable the save button when the form is not valid like this   lt input ng-disabled   frmRegister  valid  type  submit  value  Save    gt    Hope it helps

There are two simple  amp  elegant ways to do it   Pure CSS     After first form submission  despite the form validity  Angular will add a ng-submitted class to all form elements inside the form just submitted   We can use  ng-submitted to controller our element via CSS   if you want to display an error text only when user have submitted e g    error   display  none    ng-submitted  error        display  block      Using a value from Scope  After first form submission  despite the form validity  Angular will set  your form name   submitted to true  Thus  we can use that value to control elements    lt div ng-show  yourFormName  submitted  gt error message lt  div gt   lt form name  yourFormName  gt  lt  form gt

I found this fiddle http   jsfiddle net thomporter ANxmv 2  which does a nifty trick to cause control validation   Basically it declares a scope member submitted and sets it true when you click submit  The model error binding use this extra expression to show the error message like  submitted  amp  amp  form email  error required     UPDATE  As pointed out in  Hafez s comment  give him some upvotes    the Angular 1 3  solution is simply   form  submitted  amp  amp  form email  error required
