Accessing CausesValidation Value in JavaScript

[mwieder]

Given an html anchor button control, in javascript can I tell whether
that control is set to cause validation or not? In ASP.NET the
property that gets set is CausesValidatation, but in javascript,
..CausesValidation on the button comes up as undefined. I'm using
ASP.NET 2.0
thanks.

the object models are totally different, in fact you're talking 2
different languages/objects :) anyway, put the value in a hidden field
and read it that way on the client-side.

Of course the object models differ, but properties like disabled can be
set in asp.net and their values read in javascript using the disblaed
property of the control in question. I'm hoping there's some way to do
that with the CausesValidation property.
