Validation Issue 2

[TheConeHead]

I have a page with a datalist that edits and deletes it's own info - so there are some edit and delete buttons - on the same page I have a separate "form" - I need to validate on this other form but not on the datalist - How can I do this? The problem is that I add a required validator to the second form but it gets fired off when someone clicks "edit" on the datalist....

Can you get away with setting the Edit button's CausesValidation property to False?

you need to set CausesValidation to False of all other button on the page expect the one for which you want to validate

You can also use the ValidationGroup property of not only the button but also the form elements you wants validated with which buttons.
