A small problem with page validation

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping some kind person can help me with the following problem.

I have a page with a form that has a couple of required field validators
acting on it. I have a submit button and a cancel button.

The problem I am having is that when I click the cancel button, inmdicating
I just want to go back to the main page the validators are activating and
won't let the user be redirected.

Is there anyway I can stop the validators from firing when the cancel button
is pressed, whilst allowing them to work as normal when the submit button is
pressed.

Thanks all

Simon

Hi, I'm playing around with the possibilities of Page.ParseControl. Thanks to Kirk Allen Evans I got my example running (Posting Juli, 17, "Re: Generating ASP.NET-Controls with XSLT possible?"). But looking deeper I run into a problem: Kirk said, that "validation works as expected", but in my experience it works only to a certain degree "as expected".

Each user control has its own functionality and contains server-side textbox controls, requiredfieldvalidator controls which validate the textboxes, and a linkbutton control that postbacks the web page. The problem is, when the user clicks on the linkbutton control on one user control, the requiredfieldvalidator gets...

I have a table which is bound to an Internet Explorer XML data island. I'm using ASP.NET's client-side validators for an input field in the table. The problem is that if the input fields are in a table that is bound to the island (such that the rows are dynamically generated by IE from the XML data island), the validators do not work. If the table is not bound, the validators do work, but then I don't have the table iterating through...

I setup some standard Required Field Validation controls and one Custom validation control on an ASP.NET page (within a user control) to validate text entry. I also setup a Summary Control to post all the messages to a message box (ShowMessageBox=true). The required field validation error messages show up in the summary just fine but I can't get the custom validation message to show up if invalid. So far I have the summary control...

I would like to use validation controls when certain events are fired and turn the validation off when other events are fired. I have sent the page attribute for validateRequest="false", and used the Page.Validate and Page.IsValid in the events that I want to use the validation, but the validation always occurs. I am using version 1.14 Thanks Troutbum

Hi, I have a form for uploading documents and inserting the data into a mysql db. I would like to validate the form. I have tried a couple of Javascript form validation functions, but it appears that the data goes straight to the processing page, rather than the javascript seeing if data is missing and popping up an alert. I thought it may be because much of the form is populated with data from the db (lists, etc.), but when I leave...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
