Any help highly appreciated...

      <div class="form-group" style="width:50%">
        <label class="label label-info" for="Name">Enter Name:</label>
        <input [(ngModel)]="Name" class="form-control" required type="text"

  <button kendoButton  id="btnSearch" [primary]="true" 
          (click)="redirect()">Next</button>
</div>
</form>

Answer 1

Pretty simple. I recommend making a model-driven form.

In your component:

myForm: FormGroup;

constructor(private fb: FormBuilder) {
      // We inject FormBuilder to our component

      // Now, we instantiate myForm with FormBuilder
       this.myForm = this.fb.group({
                name: [null, Validators.required]
            });

  }

In the template, we will replace [(ngModel)] with formControlName="name" .

For your Next button we will disable it when form is not valid: [disabled]='!myForm.valid' .

Also notice [formGroup]='myForm' part.

<form [formGroup]='myForm'>
  <div>
      <div class="form-group" style="width:50%">
        <label class="label label-info" for="Name">Enter Name:</label>
        <input formControlName="name" class="form-control" required type="text" 
        name="Name" id="Name" />
  </div>
  <button kendoButton [disabled]='!myForm.valid' id="btnSearch" [primary]="true" 
          (click)="redirect()">Next</button>
</div>
</form>

If you need to use Template Driven Forms rather than Reactive Forms , you can use a template reference variable in combination with reference to ngModel to watch for errors on the Name input field and do something like disable the button until valid:

<form>
  <div>
      <div class="form-group" style="width:50%">
        <label class="label label-info" for="Name">Enter Name:</label>
        <input [(ngModel)]="Name" class="form-control" required type="text" 
        name="Name" id="Name" #foo="ngModel" />
      </div>
  <button kendoButton  id="btnSearch" [primary]="true [disabled]="foo.errors" (click)="redirect()">Next</button>
  </div>
</form>

For larger forms however, validation in this way can quickly get messy having a template reference variable for each field. It might be worth considering Reactive Forms if validation and logic become more complex.

Here is a plunker demonstrating the functionality.
