Required Field Validators and Response.Redire ct


Simple question, I have a webform that uses required
field validators, I also have a button that links back to
that forms homepage. If the user wants to stop what
he/she is doing and clicks that link, the required field
validators all work as intended, but does not allow the
redirect.

Any possible workaround ?

Thanks,
Robert

Set RequiresValidat ion of that link to false

Rob,

In the design window click on the button in question and then view the
button's properties. Set the property "CausesValidati on" to false and the
button will function without triggering the validators on the page.

Hi. I have a webform with a two required field validators. I have a cancel button on the form which should allow the user to quit the form and Response.Redirect to a previous webform. However, when users attempt to cancel out of the form they cannot because the required field validators turn on (because the page is posted back) and the users must actually input values into the required fields and then click the cancel button. How can...

I have a page with a couple of Required Field Validators. However, I have a button which displays a popup with some information. I want this button to be able to work without having the Required Field Validators fire. I can't figure out how to do that. Is there a better way of validating the info rather than using field validators? Any help is appreciated? Thanks, Brent

I'm using ASP.Net. I have a form that uses Required Field Validators. If the user tried to click a create new record button and certain fields aren't filled out then the RFV's show up. My problem is when a user wants to close the form without adding a new record and there's nothing in the fields it won't close. I've tried to create in the vb code a way to turn off the validators but they happen before the validator disable function runs....

Can you make a required field validator optional? I know it sounds crazy, but.... Let's say I have a signup form. It consists of 2 sections. The top section is a "GOLD MEMBER" section. It has required validators for name, address, etc... The next section is the "BRONZE MEMBER" section. It also has required validators for the same fields. The user only has to fill out 1 set of info. Any thoughts on how to accomplish this?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
