Forms Data Controls :: Custom Validator Client Function Executed Twice?
Dec 1, 2010
I have some problem with the custom validtor, I do validate at both client side & server side, and i have noticed that the client side code has been executed when I clicked Submit..
More details:
The page contains some Text boxes & one submit button, and all is client-server validated, the problem that when the end user selects the file path through browse control, the code will auto-fill in the file name textbox, and it gives the option to edit; The code which is doing this in the custom validtor client handler, here is the problem it is on_submit click handler, the script function has been called again....!
I have no idea if this is the correct behavior, But I don't want the script code to be executed when any server events fired... !
I've been trying to get a custom validator component working that ensures at least one checkbox from a checkboxlist has been checked. I've been used some code I found on dotnetjunkies.com but the client-side validation didn't work. I've been attempting to modify it to get the client-side javascript validation to work with no luck. Basically, I compile the below code into a DLL and add it to my bin folder.
I've read that OnClick is executed on the server and onClientClick is executed on the client. Is it better to use OnClientClick to do something like close a modal popup?
If my understanding is correct then this would avoid a trip to the server to accomplish the same task. This would be great for something that doesn't need to make a round trip to the server and back.
I've been working on a task to add a validator to compare the values of two text fields in a ASP.NET 1.1 application.
It uses validators already, so the best approached seemed to involve a CustomValidator. I was inspired by the following example:

I got the server side validation working - now I'm trying to add some client-side validation but I'm having a strange issue.
When I click in either of the two text fields, the value of the txtFinalGrade field is overridden to either "true" or "false". I've been having a tough time tracking down the code that's causing this. I tried using the IE Developer Toolbar to trace the script - as well as FireBug in Firefox (though this is an IE-only app) and I'm still trying to figure out what's causing this to happen.
Since I think this is a JavaScript issue, I'm posting that part of my code:
[Code]....
Anyone have ideas of things to try? Anyone have similar issues with textboxes being set to true/false when working with custom validators?
I Getting A Problem In DataGrid's ItemDataBound Event.

I have an edit template on gridview which opens a text box and button with a custom validator .
On button press I have to validate the text in edit item template with a text field in gridview row template.
I am having a hard time fetching the data of the edit template textbox. Even though both custom validator and textbox are in same edit item template but intellisense is not picking it up.
Also the custom validator server_validate event is using "object source" instead of "object sender"
How do I fetch the edit item template text for comparison
I am doing this as
protected void CustomValidator1_ServerValidate(object source, ServerValidateEventArgs args) { GridViewRow gvrow = (GridViewRow)(source as Control).Parent.Parent; int index = gvrow.RowIndex+1; // TextBox txttmp=(TextBox) Label lbl = (Label)gvComp.Rows[index].FindControl("lblSecShare"); decimal CSh = Convert.ToDecimal(lbl.Text); }
I created my custom validator in one project, something like that:
[Code]....
he composite control in another project. I added a reference of the custom validator project to the composite control project. I have a textbox in a composite control and I would like to validate this textbox by the composite control I created. But how can I do that? How can I create the custom validator instance that is linked to the custom validator I created?
in datalist templatefield, i want to bind an imagebutton's visible property. the scenario is .. it is a picture comments page like one in facebook. if its your own comment, the delete button is shown, otherwise not. the problem is .. for the imagebutton i want to set visible = false, if the user logged in is the same user as the one who commented. how can i do that ?

I am implementing a CustomAuthorizeAttribute. I need to get the name of the action being executed. How can i get the name of current action name getting executed in the AuthorizeCore function which i am overriding?
I want to execute code written in a dropdown selectedindexchanged event from some another user defined function.
For this i m writing:
ddlMyDropDown1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender, e);
It works when use it in page_load (means the code in ddlMyDropDown1_SelectedIndexChanged is executed) but when i write the same line in another function it gives error "The name sender doesnot exists in current context".
I have a validator on a textbox that validates against a list to ensure that the user doesn't input the same name. When testing it, if I type in the same name including the same case structure, it returns an error. If I change one letter to a different case, it doesn't return an error but rather my SQL server returns a duplicate error. How do I change the server-side validator so that it picks up duplicate names regardless of case?
I have a validator callout extender that works, it shows the callout box. But, it does a postback. It didn't do a post back the first time I clicked the button but it did for subsequent times. I read on the AJAX site that a custom validator must be used with this for it to work. I'm currently using this with a required field and regular expression validator. It works, the callout appears, but it doesn't work every time with out the post back.I posted this to see if there is a way to get this to work with a required field and regular expression validator, with out using a custom validator. I'm using the newest release of the toolkit, so I thought the documentation may be old, since the callout is appearing.
I was referring muddasar's one of the article for the validation. Below is my code and i am trying to validate the file upload selected file format on the submit button. I have 4 upload control and  fu1 is mandatory field and others are not mandatory fields. Though i need to validate all the four uploads if the files have been selected. My full sample code is below for easy testing,
I am doing slight mistake on the return to the main function. if i test indvidual function it works fine. whereas if i include the 4 functions in one function  with the return statement, it's not validating. goes to to the server.
Something is wrong in ASP.NET MVC 2 on client side validation. If I have form for create records in database and all fields are required, validation is triggered only then when I write something in field and delete it. If I go to field, stay this field empty and press Tab key validation isn't triggered.
Here somebody else write about the same problem: [URL]
I have a user control which contains a CustomValidator which is used according to whether a RadioButton is checked or not (there are several RadioButtons, I'm only showing the relevant one)
There is some client + server side validation code (the server side code does exactly the same thing and is skipped for brevity)
<script type="text/javascript"> function ValidateDateFields_Client(source, args) [code]...
There are two instances of this control in the page. When running the client side version it hits the wrong one (the version of the control which is disabled). You can see from the generated HTML both are correctly specified. I'm not sure how .NET works out which clientside function to call given they both have the same name.
[code]... Do i need to add something in to scope it? What's the best way to achieve this? If I disable the loading of the second control everything works fine.
This code does indeed disable the client side validation, but unfortunately it does not disable server side validation. I have a way to check to see if I need to validate them or not on the server but it's a bit complex and requires duplicating some code that is used later on to calculate the total due. I use that check and disable the validators in Page_Load and sure enough the validation does not occur. to get these validators disabled on the client & server from the client side?
I have a very simple CustomValidator control as follows:
[Code]....
If I use this on a basic aspx page as follows:
[Code]....
When I press Button1, I would expect the CustomValidator to fire only if there is a value in TextBox1.Instead, the CustomValidator is ALWAYS fired. Even adding ValidateEmptyText="false" to the validator does nothing to change this behaviour.What am I missing from my control implementation that is causing this?
I have a custom control which I need to be able to operate with the validation controls available within asp.net. I would like the message to be shown to the user client-side so as not having to wait for a postback each time.I have the ValidationPropertyAttribute("value") set at the top of the control. However it is still being completely ignored by the validation controls. I have found the following from microsoft, but I'm not sure I'm interpreting it correctly, could someoneIn order to be referenced by a validation control, a control must have a validation property. All controls that can be validated have a ValidationPropertyAttribute, which indicates which property should be read for the purposes of validation. If you write your own control, you can make it take part in validation by providing one of these attributes to specify which property to use.
I have a custom validator, which I have set a property for, and I can access this validator from my MVC controller method. However, when I run the code, I am not seeing the error message on the page. My code in the controller method looks like this:
If (!bool) { this.view.customValidator.IsValid = false; this.view.customValidator.Visible = true; }
