ASP.NET MVC 5 - decimal with comma not accept as number

Question

I found an old solution to my problem but it's seem they doesn't work in ASP.NET MVC 5. I want a view (automatically generated) from my ASP.NET MVC website that accepts a price with a comma.

My model class is

public class Alert
{
    public int AlertId { get; set; }
    [ForeignKey("CieId")]
    public Cie AlertCie { get; set; }
    public int CieId { get; set; }
    [ForeignKey("PortfolioId")]
    [Display(Name = "Threshold Price")]
    [DataType(DataType.Currency)]
    public decimal Price { get; set; }
}

The view error message is the following:

I run my site web with this web.config entry :

culture="fr-CA" uiCulture="fr-CA"

The issue is at the view level, I'm unable to create a new entry. I think the JS script blocks it.

My code accepts coma for float format. The view is able to display them correcty to. I just not able to fill out the view form.. — oL., Jan 22 '18 at 16:55
You need t reconfigure the `$.validator` which by default validates numbers with the decimal separator as a `.` (dot) — , Jan 22 '18 at 21:16
@StephenMuecke ok, seems good, but how I do it in ASP.Net MVC 5 ?! — oL., Jan 22 '18 at 21:35
See the dupe - its the same for all versions - just add the `$.validator.methods.number = function (value, element) { ...` to override the default behavior (I will also see if I can fine a good link for using the globalize plugin) — , Jan 22 '18 at 21:39

The client side validation comes from jquery.validation (Default). It uses the browser language not the server language.

So you have to make the client use your server language.

Both are set in french (server and my browser) and the regional settings are set to "," as separator for currency. – oL. Jan 22 '18 at 18:04
In German we use the same decimal seperator. To find out what the real problem is can u please open this fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/MeikelLP/x9x3r7bm/ And tell me if , or . works. In my case only , worked (german decimal seperator). – Meikel Jan 22 '18 at 21:47
It does NOT use the browser language. It use US formats – Jan 23 '18 at 09:16
