User Controls & Validation

Environment: Visual Studio 2005 + WinXP Pro SP2 + .NET 2.0

I am new to creating user controls and have a (hopefully) simple question.

I have a series of personal questions (first/last name, address, phone
number, etc.) that is repeated on several different pages. I pulled
these question out into a UserControl to make it easier to maintain, etc.

One problem... How do I specify validation logic for the controls
contained in the UserControl?

I currently have a Validation Summary (ValidationGrou p = "Personal") at
the top to the UserControl and have a bunch of Validators defined on the
different fields (each with their ValidationGroup = "Personal" ). I then
created a test page that contained the UserControl, loaded it, and
clicked the 'submit' button I created (with CausesValidatio n = "true").
I do not receive any validation error messages despite the form being
empty and having several required fields.

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue? As I said, I am new to UserControls.

Thanks,

I still haven't figured this out. Can anyone be of assistance?

Could it be related to having the ViewState disabled?

Hi, I have a page with 4 web user controls on. Each of these web user controls has some asp.net controls on that have validation events attached to them. Now because there are 4 seperate users controls I have 4 seperate validation summaries, what I would like is to have only a single validation summary at the top of the page, ie not in any user controls.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
