Is It Possible To Use Validation Controls When I Need To Modify HTML When Validation Fails

Mar 16, 2011

Let's say that I have the following HTML for a text box on an ASP.NET page:

<div class="myClass">
<asp:TextBox ID="txtMyTextBox" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</div>

It is easy enough to add a required field validator to this page like this.

<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="valMyTextBox" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtMyTextBox" ErrorMessage="My Text Box is required."></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

But I need to modify the HTML slightly if this text box fails validation. I need to add a CSS class to the DIV. So if the user leaves this field blank I need the HTML to look like this:

<div class="myClass error">
<asp:TextBox ID="txtMyTextBox" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</div>

Is this possible? I can't figure out if there is a way to write code behind that only fires if this particular validator control fails validation or something. I know I can write code that runs when the entire page is not valid. But I just want this code to run when this validator returns invalid. Hope this makes sense.

How To Extend Server-side Validation Controls To Raise An Event If Validation Fails

Feb 23, 2010

I am using ASP.NET's server-side validation. In the page_load event I'm calling Page.Validate(), and if Page.IsValid is not true I'm then polling the controls to figure out which ones are not valid, and then determining what actions to take.It would be much easier if each control would raise an event as validation fails, allowing me to take action for that particular control. I'm very much a naive programmer when it comes to validation, but is there a way to extend these controls so that a validation error raises an event?

Web Forms :: Hyperlink Control With AlternateText Property Fails Html Validation

Mar 10, 2010

Line 44, Column 69: there is no attribute "AlternateText" You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).

This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.

How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash. I can't figure this out.

Viewstate Validation Fails (but Only Sometimes)?

Feb 5, 2010

The following message appears in our log:The control tree into which viewstate is being loaded must match the control tree that was used to save viewstate during the previous request. For example, when adding controls dynamically, the controls added during a post-back must match the type and position of the controls added during the initial request. alot has been written about this subject. However, I cannot reproduce this behavior, and I only find a couple thousand errors per day in the logs; so it's probably isn't that obvious.

The page in question has an UpdatePanel and loads one of three usercontrols depending on the querystring.Is there any known issue with some clients, or any other possible explanation?

MVC :: Model Validation Passes In Firefox And It Fails In IE

Feb 14, 2010

I am uploading a JPEG image in an ASP.NET MVC web site.

The model validation fails in IE, but passes in Firefox, when I try to check the mime type of the
HttpPostedBaseFile.

So I debuged it and I found that when using Firefox the Mime type is "image/jpeg" as expected.

When using IE8 the mime type is "image/pjpeg".

Don't say that Microsoft invented a new Mime Type of JPeg images?

C# - Display A Message If Client Validation Fails?

Oct 7, 2010

I'm working on an application form for a website which implements ASP.NET validation (including client side).

I have a requirement to display a message at the bottom of the page if the client validation fails. Something along the lines of "Please go back and check your answers".

The problem is, the submit button's OnClientClick event obviously fires before the client validation.

How To Prevent Loading Of Data When Postback Fails Validation

Feb 5, 2010

I'm trying to prevent data from loading on the page when its needed.

Currently, I check the IsPostBack bool to prevent loading data in my user controls which allows the data to be loaded when the page is initially requested.

However, if my page fails validation and the page is sent back to the user with error messages, my user controls no longer have data in them because the initial request was a postback.

One solution is to have a flag in every user control (IsFailedPostBack) to force them to reload their data. Is there a better way?

Event Validation Fails On Android Phone Browser?

Aug 11, 2010

We're running a fairly large site, and a lot of our visitors have started using their Android based cellphones to visit the site. However when they try to login, we get an Event Validation error:

Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using in configuration or <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page. For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them. If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order to register the postback or callback data for validation.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this, without disabling Event validation entirely ?

It isn't every single time they visit, but it is often enough that it's a problem.

Also we never get these on PC-based browsers (IE, FF, Chrome, Safari, Opera, etc.)

EDIT:

The page this happens on has no updatepanels, no custom __doPostback code, etc. It's pretty much vanilla with a simple LinkButton that causes the postback.

Also this error occurs on a bunch of other pages as well (Just found out about that now), so I doubt it's a lone design fault.

Web Forms :: Validation Fails When Fields Are Populated On Page_load

Feb 17, 2011

I'm writing a small web application in c# and i'm running into a small problem.

Basically, on page_load() my backend MySQL db is queried to bring back the user data, and that is then inserted into the textbox controls as below:

[Code]....

Now the problem occurs when the RequiredFieldValidator kicks in. In my form processing function, I call Page.IsValid(), it fails and displays the required message next to the required fields.

I was wondering if there is a workaround for this, or a better way to go about what i'm trying to do.

MVC :: Validation Attribute Fails With Deeper Objects IsValid Parameter Is Null?

Apr 9, 2010

I have an CustomViewModel that is composed of three layers of objects.

The first one is to store and populate lists to be used in dropdowns.

The second one is to store additional propperties that I want.

And the third one is the model itself.

I create the view using View(new Layer(model))

And at the post i have ActionResult .... (Container container)

I made this architecture because i was having a lot of problems with model binder and enums...

So when i post to the form and the ModelBinder checks the validation attributes, the IsValid operation at the attribute X applied to the model class has its parameter value as null.

This behavior doesn't happen if I Just use the simple model to create and post the view.

What I have to do to get this work ?

I made a few changes to the AccountController to use it as sample here, here is the code:

[Code]....

Just change the register page to inherits from RegisterModelLayer.

When I post, the value parameter at the IsValid function at the PropertiesMustMatchAttribute class is null;

As a consequence i can't validate and get an null exception maybe.

Button Click Event Still Firing Even Through Custom Server-side Validation Fails?

I am having a problem where my button click event is still firing even though my custom server-side validation is set to args.IsValid = false. I am debugging through the code and the validation is definitely being fired before the button click, and args.IsValid is definitely being set to false once the custom validation takes place, but it always makes its way to the button click event afterwards.
