I have a text box that is validated using an asp:requiredfieldvalidator.
There is an asp button control that posts back to the server. When the button
is pressed, if there is no data in the text box then the
asp:requiredfieldvalidator message lights up as expected and prevents post
back. This works as expected.
However, I also have an anchor link on the pages such as <a href="#" onclick
= "MyPostBackJavaScript" />
When this link is pressed, the page posts back as expected, however, on
return the asp:requiredfieldvalidator is lit. If I put text in the textbox
then click the link, the asp:requiredfieldvalidator won't light up.
The anchor link should not cause validation at all. Can someone tell me what
might be going on here?
