Problem with ValidationSumma ry/Validation groups and Wizards

[Code Rodent]

Hi there,

Please please could someone shed some like on a problem that I'm having
using a combination of Wizards, ValidationGroup s and ValidationSumma ry
controls. What I want to do is to have a wizard that will take me through
several steps, and at each step validate input data using
RequiredFieldVa lidators etc. displaying any errors in a Validation Summary.
The problem that I have is that I cannot seem to have a ValidationSumma ry
control on each step of the wizard and get client side validation to take
place. If I remove the summary control from the second step of the wizard,
then all is well and client side validation takes place.

I've broken the problem down to it's most simple form see code below which
demonstrates the problem.

I've struggled for many hours to track the problem down to this, so I'm
hoping that some kind person can show me the error of my ways or provide an
acceptable work around. I do need to have the summary panel on each step
though, so thinking caps on..

Thanks in advance

Andy
