Validate multiple chcekboxlist

[kindicheema]

Hi

Using vb with ASP.net, I have a checkboxlist and i wish to check if any items have been selected. But i cant seem to select the checkboxlist with the requiredfieldvalidator control. I have found that i need to create a base class and create my own custom control. Im a bit unconfident with this, can anybody help???

Thanks

YOu need to loop through the items in the checkboxlist and see if any are checked. You can't use the validator controls for this.

you could create your own validator for this.
