Attribute: Formnovalidate

The novalidate attribute is a boolean attribute. When present, it specifies that the <input> element should not be validated when submitted. The formnovalidate attribute overrides the novalidate attribute of the <form> element. This attribute can be used with type="submit".

This is a form with two submit buttons (one with and the other without validation):

HTML file: Displayed by browser:
<form action="http://www.w3schools.com/html/action_page.php">
E-mail: <input type="email" name="userid">
<br />
<br /><input type="submit" value="Submit">
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type="submit" formnovalidate value="Submit without validation">
</form>
E-mail:

    

This should work with all major browsers, except Safari and IE9 or earlier.
