ASP.NET 2.0 will offer a solution called Validation Groups. It lets you
assign a group name to the submit button and the validators it fires. Since
ASP.NET 2.0 is not ready yet, here are your choices:
1. Use server-side only validation on submit like this:
- Set CausesValidation=false
- In the submit button's Click method, call Validate() on each validator
that should be fired. Then test the IsValid property on each validator. If
all are true, save.
2. Use a third party validation system that already has validation groups. I
wrote one: Professional Validation And More
(

validation groups because Microsoft's validators have so many limitations
and don't address common requests, like setting the background color of the
field with the error or client-side validation on Mozilla-based browsers.
