HTML validations from javascript

Question

<input type="text" id="newFname" pattern="^[a-zA-z0-9 _-]{2,}$" required placeholder="First Name" />

<input type="text" id="newLname" pattern="^[a-zA-z0-9 _-]{2,}$" required placeholder="Last Name"/>

Is it possible to disable html validation on second input without modifying pattern or required attributes?

I'm pretty sure the only way to disable html validation is to modify those attributes. — RevanProdigalKnight

What is the reason you would want to disable validation and yet leave these attributes there? I'm curious. — Antoine Cloutier

I just thought that it would be easier if I can achieve it by changing some one attribute instead of two. — Talha5389

What you could do, put the inputs in separate forms and add the novalidate attribute to the second form.
