selective validation on specific buttons only

[Kurt Schroeder]

I wish to allow a form to be canceled or go to a previous page without
validation. To do this i would like to validate, say a required field, only
when a specific button is hit. What is the easiest way to do this?
thankss

You can add the CausesValidation="false" to the Button so it won't perform
the validation

set CauseValidation = false of the buttons that don't need to validate your
form.
