Rquired field validator - client side problem

[RA]

Hi

How do I disable it if the user pressed a button:
asp:imagebutton id="btnHome" onclick="test()" runat="server"

What I want to have is that if someone presses this button then the required
field validator won't be activated so the user can move out of the current
page.

Hi,

First, you'll want an HTML button so that you can more easily add
client-side script to its click event. Then you will want to disable the
validation control by calling ValidatorEnable(RequiredFieldValidator,
false).

For more information, see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...us/dnaspp/html
/aspplusvalid.asp and search within it for the text ValidatorEnable. It
includes sample code.

I hope this helps.

Thank you, Mike

Yes but I have many asp buttons and if the user clickes any one of them I
would like to disable the validation. How do I add client side script to asp
buttons?
Thanks,
Ron

Hi,

That's a difficult subject. When you have asp buttons and validators on the
same page, the validators "take over" the button's click event and it's
tricky to get it back.

There are seven or so ways to get the click event back listed on this web
site, including sample code. Good luck.

This is actually a very simple problem to over come. Add this property to your button >> CausesValidation=False . When you click the button no validation occurs and you can navigate elsewhere.
