validation controls? 3

[dhmfh]

Hi Guys.

I have implemented validation controls to validate textboxes on my aspx page. I also have a submit button that will post the information into the database. If the user clicks submit before entering any information are the validation controls still run?

Why don't you try it and see what happens?

If the button have CausesValidation set to TRUE then an 'page.validate()' instruction will be triggered. Also make sure that every validator control has 'ControlToValidate' property set.

Also, in ASP.NET 1.x, most validators won't fire if the input is blank. In 2.0, you need to set the appropriate property to make the validation fire on blank input.

It's "ValidateEmptyText" which only applies to CustomValidators.
