Validator Control

[Yoshitha]

Hi,

In my webform i have few text box controls and 1 button control.
and for each text box i have placed

required field validatior.
and i set the following properties of

required field validator

Control to validate = the corresponding

text box name
display=dynamic
error message=must enter value
enableclient script=true

when am running my application if i directly goes to 2 textbox control with
out entering any value in 1st textbox then it has to display the error
message

which i had specified na but it is

not displaying any error message at

that time but it is displaying error

message after clicking on submit

button.
but what i need is it has to display this message
when the control lost its focus.
or before clicking on submit button.

can anybody tell me the solution for my problem.plz its urgent.
thanx in advance

set textbox autopostback property to true and add the following code to the
page_load event:

if ( Page.IsPostBack )
{
Page.Validate();
}

I set post back property true for all the text boxes.and for each text box i
also placed required field validator control.

so when i run my application if i enter any data in the first text box then
am getting the messages for remaining text boxes which i had set for
required field validator control.
why am getting all those messages before entering the data in remaining
text boxes?

can u tell how to solve this problem
thanx in advance
