SmartTip validation rules in SAP Web Channel Experience Management are designed to provide real-time feedback to users as they complete forms. The evaluation is specifically triggered by the onBlur JavaScript event. This event occurs when a user has finished entering content into a field and subsequently moves the focus away from that field, either by clicking on another element or by using the Tab key. This approach provides immediate validation without interrupting the user's typing process, ensuring an efficient and user-friendly experience.

A: A page refresh reloads the entire page and is not a trigger for real-time, field-level validation like SmartTips.

B: Evaluating on every character entry (oninput or onkeyup) would be inefficient and potentially disruptive to the user; SmartTips wait until the user leaves the field.

D: Clicking into a field (onfocus) occurs before the user has entered or modified data, making it an inappropriate time to perform validation.
