MVC: On partial page start validation from JS without postback

How do I start validation from the client/javascript using the MS MVC Validation library?

Using MS ASP.Net MVC, I have a page with a PartialView in a modal dialog (change password).

I am able in JS to post and refresh the partialView, however I am unable to start client validation. The MS MVC validation starts on postback (Input type='submit'). How can I start this in JS?
