I also used the OnActiveStepChanged event of a Wizard control to determine

You can figure out where to call the method once you study and learn how
this example of server-side validation works.

>How do you add javascript to a page from codebehind? I have a method I am
working on that has a few conditions in it:
1. if either 1 or both WordTextBox or DefinitionTextBox is empty, show a
popup window telling the user that the textbox(s) can't be empty and
return
them to the page with no further action.
2. The value in WordTextBox is already in the collection as a key, so
show a
popup telling the user that the word already exists and then return them
to
the page with no further action.
How would you do this?
1. I think you can do this with ASP.NET RequiredFieldValidator &
ValidationSummary Controls
2. How do you get collection? Is it a database value?
