Problem with required field validator.

[mathewgk80]

Hi all,

I have two textboxes, txtName and txtDescription.

i added required field validator to both of them.

I have a Gridview in the same page.

In tht gridview, i have a template field called "Delete". when i click on tht delete link. a javascript is generated which says "Do u want to delete this record?". and when i click yes the entire row will be deleted.

The problem is that when i click on the delete in the gridview, required field validator is executed and i cant delete the record. before click on the delete, i have to enter some values in tht two text boxes.

I tried a lot to find the solution.But i cant..

Please help me...

Are the two textboxes used to search for data that will be displayed in the gridview? I am assuming the required field validators have nothing to do with the delete functionality. If this is the case you should be able to mark the enabled property of the required field validators to false in the beginning of your Delete button click event. Give this a try and let us know if you find any other issues.

Hi,

the text boxes are used to add data into gridview when clicking on Add button .

I used requiredfieldvalidator.enabled=false.. but no change
Required field validater is still working...

Try custom validator or post some code.

I played around with the RequiredValidator properties and if you set the following properties to false in your button click event this should work.

RequiredFieldValidator.EnableClientScript = false;
RequiredFieldValidator.Enabled = false;

Give this a try.

Hi everyone,

i got the solution...

I have to go to Edit Template and select the template field and then put "Causes Validation" to false...

Thank and Regards,
