Checking if the page IsValid in Javascript?!

Hi,

I have a form that contains various server validation controls, the submit
button will either open a popup box or a popup window on the client-side
click event. The question is, how do I check if the page is valid before it
gets posted back to the server so the window or box only pops up if
everything is OK? At the moment the popup occurs first then the validation.

Many thanks

Emilio

Hi,

client-side script has also Page_IsValid flag to indicate the status of the
validation. See this article for details:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...pplusvalid.asp

Basically the cient-side checking you need to develop yourself but the tools
you need exist in the client-side validation API

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, unfortunatly the my client-side onclick event seems to
be taking place before the Page_IsValid flag is updated from its default
true state. Is their any way I can get around this. The onclick attribute is
added in the last the last line of code in my page load event.

thanks

It is updated right when Page_ClientVali date is called. On the article, I
mentioned, is also explained how to check the status validator by validator.
You can call Page_ClientVali date yourself also.

Thanks Teemu,

Got it working 100%, the article doesn't mention the Page_ClientVali date
function however.

Thanks again

Hi, I'm playing around with the possibilities of Page.ParseControl. I parse a string with an input-field and an RequiredFieldValidator-control. For testing the server-side validation I disable JavaScript and get this scenario: - When you enter a name, no warning appears, that's good! - When you don't enter a name, the warning appears, that's very good!

When should you use the Page.Validate() method?

We know in server code, we can check the page validated by using Page.IsValid where we put some validator controls on aspx page. I want to set some value after validating user input values on client side and before page posts to server. How can i get the functionality of client side Page.IsValid? thanks.
