It is a server control. You can not prevent postback. It works as designed.

It's a server control but it should run JavaScript client side to do validation first.

What is your Regular Expression?


If your regular expression is incorrect then it may be allowing invalid data to post back to the server.

the client side code works only on clients machine and the postback is a server side process. So when you start entering text the client side code works and thats why you have this thing. I think its not a problem at all its a good feature of regular expression.
But in your case i think you want to do some thing in postback first then you want to go further.
I think by making of group for validators you may not have this problem any more.

This is admittedly an apparently odd request... but please indulge me if you don't mind: Suppose I have two <asp:Button.../> on a page (Button1 and Button2). User clicks Button1 and triggers a PostBack. How can I then fire the click event of Button2 during the same PostBack? I know this seems like a totally bad situation I'm creating out of naiveity. But please indulge. It would save me from having to provide a lengthy explanation for...

I'm trying to pass two values from client script (Javascript) to the code-behind for a page using three hidden fields - two to hold the values and a third to fire the ValueChanged event. I have tried every method I can think of to get the event to fire, but it will not, so either I am missing some code or am misunderstanding the nature of the event. If anyone can review the test code posted below (which I created to try to debug the...

I have several TextBoxes with TextMode="MultiLine" in which I want to limit the number of characters that can be entered using a RegularExpressionValidator. I have come up with the following ValidationExpression: {0,250} The only problem with this ValidationExpression is that it does not include the \n character as stated on the following documentation page:

Hi guys, I am converting a rather complicated database driven Web application from classic ASP to ASP.NET 2.0 using VB 2005 as the programming language. The original ASP application works quite well, so at times it is tempting just to port parts of it over mostly as-is. In fact, one MSDN article I read suggested using straight HTML wherever possible to make the app more efficient and less resource demanding. On one page there are 2...

What causes a server event to fire when something happens on the client? Say a user changed the gridview's page index, the server side PageIndexChanged event is fires. What makes PageIndexChanged fires? Is it a field in the viewstate? Is it a value in the forms collections? I am trying to understand the mechanism of communication between the browser and the server.

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,...
