hey
asp.net 2.0
I'm trying to create a web page where users can register to my web portal.
But I've run into a layout problem when using the data validator classes.
The problem is that the error message is not displayed on the same row as
the control it's validating. Check this link and you see an example of the
problem: http://home.online.no/~au-holme/pub/14506/problem.GIF the text
"Password and confirm password must match" is not displayed on the same row
as the control it is set to validate. And also the error isn't left
aligned, but HorizontalAlign is set to "Left" - so I hoped the text should
be left aligned
What am I doing wrong here?
Below are the markup of my problem table
