I am creating a custom 'control' which is simply made of two html inputs [type=text] but can't figure out how the validation will work on the view end.
I want to treat these 2 inner controls as asingle control so when a error is added to modelstate both of these inputs are highlighted in the view and a single validation message is shown.
I have implemented customised registratio page by extending the membership provider using profile provider.I successfully registered the user .Now i want to validate the fields of registration page.Built-in Registration page has builtin validation messages.
Bu in my coding i am not passing model to the registration action, instead i am passing properties.So if i Use If(ModelState.IsValid) it is always gives true even i am not filling any fields .but after it throws an exception but not displaying error messages in the page.tell me what i have to do.How i am getting my validation messages.
I saw Account Models class in that for register Model built in validation conditions are there.So i am also writing like that for my properties.
[code]....
I have the following code:
[Code]....
The file is validated using FluentValidation. So if the file is valid (Is CSV and less than 400 KB) then the ModelState is valid.
The problem is that if the ModelState is valid then I need to parse the file and here some errors can occur:
[Code]....
Can this be done?
I mean the ModelState was valid but sudenly it is not valid anymore.
I'd like to disable ModelState validation messages and keep my data annotation error messages.
When I update model, message "The value '' is invalid." apears in ModelState. I know that I'm trying to assign null to not nullable property, but I have my own validation and message.
I use something like this
[Required(ErrorMessage="Blahblah some error")]
I want user to see my message "Blahblah some error", but not stupid message: The value '' is invalid.
I've got a custom control with asp:hyperlinks that's causing validation which I don't want... Is there anyway I can stop this from happening?
View 1 RepliesI've implemented a validation through:
foreach (var issue in data.GetRuleViolation())
{
ModelState.AddModelError(issue.PropertyName, issue.ErrorMessage);
}
But at the client side I am not able to take the benefit of ValidationSummary as the call is being made by AJAX. What is the right approach on validation.
When to go for custom validation control and when to do validation in javascript? What are pros and cons of each of them?
View 3 RepliesI have custom class level validation attribute, inheriting from ValidationAttribute, on my model.
How come it doesn't register a key in the ModelState when its IsValid is false? I can see the the error message in the ModelState.Values collection, but the ModelState.Keys collection only shows an empty string "". Can I provide a key for it - presumably this is because its not assigned to a property?
I wanna be able to use ModelState.Remove in my controller to remove this error upon a certain condition, but I have no Key!
I've written a custom ASP.net control that descends from LinkButton and overrides the Render() method. I'm using it to replace ImageButtons in the site I'm working on so we don't have to have an image for each button. This control works fine, does the required post-backs etc., however it doesn't fire the validators in its validation group. This is obviously an issue. The code for the control is (condensed) as follows:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
public class CustomButton : LinkButton
{
public string SpanCssClass { get; set; }
protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
if (!Visible)
{
return;
}
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Name, UniqueID);
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Id, ClientID);
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Class, CssClass);
string postback = string.IsNullOrEmpty(OnClientClick) ? "javascript:__doPostBack('" + UniqueID + "','');" : OnClientClick;
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Href, postback);
writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.A);
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Class, SpanCssClass);
writer.RenderBeginTag(HtmlTextWriterTag.Span);
writer.Write(Text);
writer.RenderEndTag();
writer.RenderEndTag();
}
}
Does anyone know why this would not be causing the validators to fire? I was under the impression that leaving all the other methods in LinkButton un-overridden would leave all the other functionality the same.
I want to make panels Visibility true or false based on a result of a Func.I have a page with controls as in the following code:
<asp:Panel ID="Panel2" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="Panel3" runat="server">
<c:PermissionPanel ID="P1" runat="server" ValidationGroup="Val1">
[code]...
I have this code:
protected void registerBtn_click(object s, EventArgs e)
{
bool agencyPictureActive = agencypicture.HasFile;
agencypictureValidator.Enabled = agencyPictureActive;
Page.Validate();
if (Page.IsValid)
{
and this control:
<asp:label runat="server">Logo</asp:label>
<asp:FileUpload id="agencypicture" runat="server"/>
<asp:CustomValidator id="agencypictureValidator"
ValidationGroup="userForm"
ControlToValidate="agencypicture"
ErrorMessage="some error msg" Text="*"
OnServerValidate="checkImageSizeValidate"
runat="server">
</asp:CustomValidator>
I want to validate and save the image along with other form value upon "registerBtn_click" , but the custom validation control of the image does not activate somehow... why?
This is my submit control:
<asp:LinkButton id="btnSubmit" OnClick="registerBtn_click"
ValidationGroup="userForm" Text="Submit" runat="server">
</asp:LinkButton>
I try to create a asp.net mvc 2 application.
My DropDownList won't be validated!
I have a core model class called Animal with some attributes and the same for the class Genus. These classes are mapped to nHibernate.

I have 2 custom validator controls on my page but for some strange reason the Custom Validator for FileUpload control works and the custom validator for TextBox control does not work. Here is the aspx code:
<asp:FileUpload ID="_fileCv" runat="server" Width="500px" /><br />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="_rfvFileCv" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Resume; " ControlToValidate="_fileCv" SetFocusOnError="True" ValidationGroup="APPLY">
<img src="images/mandatory.gif" alt="Required" /></asp:RequiredFieldValidator
<asp:CustomValidator ID="CustomValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="_fileCv"
ErrorMessage="Max file size for documents is 4MB." OnServerValidate="CustomValidator1_ServerValidate" ValidationGroup="APPLY"></asp:CustomValidator>
<asp:TextBox ID="_txtHealthComments" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="5" Width="500" />
<asp:CustomValidator ID="CustomValidator2" runat="server" ControlToValidate="_txtHealthComments"
ErrorMessage="Kindly enter health Comments ." OnServerValidate="CustomValidator2_ValidateHealth" ValidationGroup="APPLY"></asp:CustomValidator>
Here is the code behind:
protected void CustomValidator1_ServerValidate(object source, ServerValidateEventArgs args) {
if (_fileCv.FileBytes.Length > 4194304) {
args.IsValid = false;
} else { args.IsValid = true; } }
protected void CustomValidator2_ValidateHealth(object source, ServerValidateEventArgs args) {
if (_rdoHealth.SelectedValue == "1" && _txtHealthComments.Text == "") {
args.IsValid = false; } else { args.IsValid = true; } }
I'm trying to add a validation support to DropDownList by creating a custom control inheriting from DropDownList:
public class MyDropDown: DropDownList, INamingContainer
{
private const string ValidatorID = "Validator";
private RequiredFieldValidator _validator;
[Code]....
My class implements INamingContainer because I wanted to avoid naming conflicts. Unfortunately when I try using this control I get the following exception:
Unable to find control id 'MDD' referenced by the 'ControlToValidate' property of 'MDD_Validator'
This is happening beause for INamingContainer FindControl(NamingContainerId) returns null.
When I remove INamingContainer implementation and set validator ID in the following way:
_validator.ID = String.Format("{0}_{1}", ID, ValidatorID);
Everything is working fine, and id given to Validator is the same as it would be inside Naming container.
But is there a way to accomplish this WITH INamingContainer ?
I have a textbox in my application which has multiple validation on it e.g. RequiredFieldValidator, RegexValidation and CustomValidation. My page has several similar textboxes. So I just copy-paste and change id and controltovalidate properties and it is working.
Since similar tbxs are going to be used on another page as well, I think it would be nice to create my own custom TextBox control with built-in validation.
Here are two approaches I have found and tried:
1: Implement from IValidator perform my custom validation in Validate Method. As shown here: Self-Validating TextBox But it does not show how to implement client-side validation.
2: Create custom control that derives from TextBox and add asp.net built-in validators I need. As shown here:Custom TextBox. I tried the code and it works server/client side.
I like the first approach but don't know how to implement client-side validation. I know I need a client-side js function. I can do that. I know how to include my js file using Page.ClientScript class but don't know how to integrate all together and make it work.
I can create a UserControl or the second approach above but for now I am specifically looking to learn and implement client-side validation from custom control.
I am sure this question has been asked and answered; but I haven't managed to find it...
I am creating a very simple custom System.Web.UI.Control that has a few properties. I can define in my ASPX page the following tag and everything is happy:
<ns:MyControl runat="server" MyProperty="Value" />
However, if I want to have one or more "child" properties, like so:
<ns:MyControl runat="server" MyProperty="Value">
<Element AnotherProperty="AnotherValue1" />
<Element AnotherProperty="AnotherValue2" />
</ns:MyControl>
what I need to do to make the XHTML validate. I always have
Content is not allowed between the opening and closing tag of element 'XXX'
Element 'XXX' is not supported
The name contains uppercase characters, which is not allowed
The code actually runs as expected, but I haven't manged to find a good example on how to do this correctly so that everything validates. In terms of implementation of the Custom Control, I just have all properties stubbed out at the moment, and looks something like:
[ParseChildren(true)]
[PersistChildren(false)]
public class MyControl : Control[code]....
Ultimately, Element is intended to build up a collection of Elements. Any insight on how to do this properly and have the XHTML validate
I have a little doubt about creating a login control in the master page within a contentplaceholder.
What i want is to create my own login control in the masterpage, using a loginview inside a contentplaceholder. The code is the following:
[Code]....
So far so good, but now i want to create the logic to do the actual login. In a regular aspx page i'll do it in the cmdlogin click event, but as i'm in the masterpage, i'm not sure if i can do that. I actually tried to do it in the code behind of the masterpage, but it didn't work. What can do?? do i ahve to use the asp.net login control?
I have a custom user control with some input fields and a submit button. I need to validate the fields using the jquery validation plugin when the submit button is clicked. (The function of the submit button is to create another custom control which displays the data entered in the above mentioned control)
Bt as far as I knw, validation plugin works only with form validation ryt? And my custom control does not contain a form tag as I am using master pages. The custom control is present in one of the content pages and the master page already contains a form tag with a runat=server attribute. And I guess one page can contain only a single form tag with runat=server attrib ryt?
So how do I get it to work?
I recently created a custom validation control that compares two textboxes and verifies their content. When I use this control in a detailsview I have no problems but, when an updatepanel is added the validation control no longer works.I'm using Visual Studio 2010 and .net 3.5 framework.

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 have a custom control that is based off the gridview control located at: here The control is basically a gridview that automatically creates a column of checkboxes that can be used to "check" individual rows in the gridview. During the gridview's "CreateColumns" event, the "checkboxcolumn" is created dynamically. The checkboxcolumn also contains another checkbox in the header that is used to "select/deselect all" checkboxes in the column. Since the gridview does not automatically remember the state of the checkboxes in the checkboxcolumn on postback, I added a method to the control called "SaveCheckBoxState" which stores the indexes of the checked rows in Viewstate, and then I modified the "OnRowDataBound" event to check the Viewstate and reset the checkboxes based on the Viewstate.
I then added a call to "SaveCheckBoxState" in the gridview's OnSorting and OnPageIndexChanging events. This works great so long as I'm sorting or changing pages. However, I need it to update the viewstate everytime someone clicks or unclicks one of the checkboxes. At this time, the checkboxes are rendered with an onclick event that calls some javascript to highlight the row, or in the case of the checkbox in the header, to select/deselect all checkboxes. I need to call the "SaveCheckBoxState" method from the javascript used by the customcontrol, or I need to find a way to modify viewstate from javascript and perform the same action as "SaveCheckBoxState".
I've tried adding the "SaveCheckBoxState" to the onclick event declaration in the checkboxes, but when run, it simply tells me that the method is undefined. It doesn't exist in the parent page, and I don't think I should have to make an event for the parent page to pass the click to. It seems to me this should be all self contained within the custom control. Does anyone know how I can acheive this? Here is the code for the gridview OnPreRender event where the onclick event of the checkbox is set:
protected override void OnPreRender(EventArgs e)
{
// Do as usual
base.OnPreRender(e);
// Adjust each data row
foreach (GridViewRow r in Rows)
{
// Get the appropriate style object for the row
TableItemStyle style = GetRowStyleFromState(r.RowState);
// Retrieve the reference to the checkbox
CheckBox cb = (CheckBox)r.FindControl(InputCheckBoxField.CheckBoxID);
// Build the ID of the checkbox in the header
string headerCheckBoxID = String.Format(CheckBoxColumHeaderID, ClientID);
// Add script code to enable selection
cb.Attributes["onclick"] = String.Format("ApplyStyle(this, '{0}', '{1}', '{2}')",
SelectedRowStyle.CssClass,
style.CssClass,
headerCheckBoxID);
// Update the style of the checkbox if checked
if (cb.Checked)
{
r.BackColor = SelectedRowStyle.BackColor;
r.ForeColor = SelectedRowStyle.ForeColor;
r.Font.Bold = SelectedRowStyle.Font.Bold;
}
else
{
r.BackColor = style.BackColor;
r.ForeColor = style.ForeColor;
r.Font.Bold = style.Font.Bold;
}
}
}
I have a custom control which inherit from the Table class and in the constructor, it takes a an integer as an argument. There is no empty constructor.
Is there a way for the user to set that variable in the properties window after they drag the control onto a form.
I know some .NET controls, you can set the source for the parameter to different things like another control's property, QueryString using just the properties window.
Right now, I have to create the control dynamically. I read the query string and then created the object.
here's a situation and I would appreciate your response.
I have programmatically created the Wizard control:
Page_Load(obj s, evargs e)
{
Wizard ClaimDetailWizard = new Wizard();
foreach(int item in selectedItems)
{
//create new step
//added custom control to new step
//add step to wizard
}
//added wizard to a placeholder on a page
}
Based on List I get from Session i added new steps to my wizard To each step I had added a custom control
Each custom control in tern contains another custom Gridview Control in it.
So here's the problem when the page loads for example for two steps. All is good Wizard does what it's supposed to do.
But when I try to use sorting or paging in that custom Gridview. Somehow it displays the gridview I should see in the next step of the wizard.
Also what I'm noticing through debugging. Is that when I press next in the wizard I go back to the original page where I do all of the code specified above, and it recreates the wizzard. But it goes to the next step. Is this the way wizard supposed to work? Just doesn't seem very efficient.
