Re field validation

Hi,
I am new to asp.net and unfortunately, have to learn as I go.
Here is a "problem".

I have got two radio buttons No and Yes and text box that has to be fiiled
in only if Yes is clicked. How can I validate this?

Here is a code:

<asp:radiobutto nlist RepeatDirection =Horizontal RepeatLayout=Ta ble
id="is_override " runat="server">
<asp:listitem text="No" Value="0"></asp:listitem>
<asp:listitem text="Yes" Value="1"></asp:listitem>
</asp:radiobutton list>
<asp:requiredfi eldvalidator
id="RequiredFie ldValidator_is_ override"
runat="server"
ErrorMessage="Y ou must choose a valid Override option."
ControlToValida te="is_override ">
</asp:requiredfie ldvalidator>

<asp:textbox size=50 MaxLength="100" id="reason" runat="server" Text="" />
<!--- here I need some type of validation if a user cliked Yes --->

Help is very much appreciated!

Thanks

Can you do something like this:

1. Add a button.
2. Add this code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Button1.Click
If is_override.Sel ectedValue = 1 And reason.Text = "" Then
Response.Write( "You must enter a reason!")
Else
' do whatever (redirect, etc...)
End If
End Sub

None of the Microsoft validators have the ability to turn themselves on
based on another element of the page. There are two solutions.

1. Write a custom validator. If you want it to work on the client side, you
will have to figure out that code too.

2. I have written a replacement for Microsoft's validation, "Profession al
Validation And More" (http://www.peterblum.com/vam/home.aspx). Each of its
validators has a new property, "Enabler", where you can define a rule that
smartly enables the validator. On my RequiredTextVal idator, you can set the
Enabler to look at the radiobutton before enabling itself. This works fully
on the client-side. In fact, Professional Validation And More's 22
validators support many more browsers on the client-side than Microsoft: IE,
IE/Mac, Netscape/Mozilla, Opera 7 and Safari.

I know that dotnet allows for form field validation. However I'm looking to customize the error message display and am wondering if it's possible to do what I need. Example: Suppose in a form there is a "Name" field (required). The user leaves it blank and submits the form. I need to reload the page with the "Name" in red so the user can see which field(s) have errors in them.

I have an interesting problem when I run the following code in Netscape (7.02) vs. IE. This page works great in IE and all my controls bring up the validation summary dialog box if the required field is not filled out. However in Netscape NONE of the required field validations occurs at all in Netscape. The form is posting correctly because I can walk through the post back process. Any ideas why this is happening or how to fix it?

Hi, Could someone give me a quick review of how to use the required field Validator? I'm completely at a loss, and MSDN does not help one bit. =/ Basically all I want done is to make sure that the user enters some text into a field called "txbName" and when they click on the submit button, if they have not entered anything into the field, a Required Field Validator will say "Invalid Name". Thanks,

Hello Everyone, Ive seen alot of people saying that the best way to AJAX Validate a form is through the submit button, because validation should be synchronous. Im wondering, is there any good way to validate a form field by field like AJAX would do, but to keep it synchronous? i.e. one action, one validation. Thanks,
