Execute client side script when validation fails - how?

[turboJeeper]

I have a form with 16 fields, 10 of which use the
RequiredFieldVa lidator controls. I want to display a custom message
when the validation fails. However, all the validators have
ClientScript enabled so there is no postback.

What can I hook into on the client side to execute other client side
script (eg. show a hidden label or popup) if validation fails?

Can somebody help me out with this please?

Sure,

<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBox1" CausesValidatio n="false"/>
<asp:RequiredFi eldValidator runat="server" ID="RequiredFie ldValidator1"
ControlToValida te="TextBox1"
ErrorMessage="" Display="Dynami c" EnableClientScr ipt="true"/>

<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBox2" CausesValidatio n="false"/>
<asp:RequiredFi eldValidator runat="server" ID="RequiredFie ldValidator2"
ControlToValida te="TextBox2"
ErrorMessage="" Display="Dynami c" EnableClientScr ipt="true"/>

<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBox3" CausesValidatio n="false"/>
<asp:RequiredFi eldValidator runat="server" ID="RequiredFie ldValidator3"
ControlToValida te="TextBox3"
ErrorMessage="" Display="Dynami c" EnableClientScr ipt="true"/>

<asp:Button runat="server" ID="Button3" Text="Click!" OnClientClick=" return
ValidateUserDat a();"/>

<script type="text/javascript">
function ValidateUserDat a()
{
for (i = 0; i < Page_Validators .length; i++)
{
ValidatorValida te(Page_Validat ors[i]);
}

ValidatorUpdate IsValid();

if (Page_IsValid == true)
{
return true;
}
else
{
alert('my custom code!');
return false;
}
}
</script>
