Security :: Style Error Messages Such As InvalidPasswordErrorMessage?
Feb 13, 2011
Is it possible to style error messages such as InvalidPasswordErrorMessage which is used in the login control. How to set a CssClass property? In addition to doing it hardcoded, it it even possible to do it dynamically?
I've read some articles about how to customize the look and feel of CreateUserWizard but none of them showed me if I can display my error messages somewhere else in the layout. Currently, they appear right above the register button. I'd like to display them next to the table so that there's plenty of space.
For error messages, validation faults etc you have
ModelState.AddErrorMessage("Fool!");
But, where do you put success responses like "You successfully transfered alot of money to your ex." + "Your balance is now zero". I still want to set it at the controller level and preferably in key-value way, the same way as errormessages but without invalidating the modelstate.
This is probably going to end up as a stupid question, but countless research has offered me no results. I know there are different types of errors I want to check for, and when I should be throwing an exception for "exceptional" errors, and that I should create validating functions for input and other checks. My problem is, how do I send an error back to a page when the data entered fails in a separate class?
For Example:
User input entered in Page1.aspx, click calls Submit() in Class.vb Class.vb finds that input is invalid How do I update Page1.aspx label to say "Hey, that is not right".
In ASP.Net, how do I limit validation messages to only one?
Rule: User must put in a number between 0 and 1000.
Current [undesired] Behavior:
User types 1001: validator says "Please put in a non-negative number beneath 1000" User types -1: validator says "Please put in a non-negative number beneath 1000"
Desired Behavior:
User types 1001: validator says "Please put in a number beneath 1000" User types -1: validator says "Please put in a non-negative number"
In other words, how can I use two asp:RangeValidators whose disallowed values intersect but only turn on the desired one? I do not want to handle a ServerValidate event on the server.
I have a form that has contact fields, billing address, and shipping address. So if i fill out my contact information ONLY and left billing and shipping address blank then hit submit, the validation for the billing address and shipping address appears. Ok no problem, there is a check in each billing and shipping fields that once click on it copies the address from contact to billing or shipping fields. Everything works except for the validation messages. They are still there. Is there a way to remove the validation message after the textboxes are populated with data?
I'm running Visual Studio 2010 and IE9 and integrating with facebook and the facebook javascript code keeps resulting in exceptions... 'Error: '__flash__removeCallback' is undefined' which I can't do anything about.
Visual Studio keeps on telling me about each and every one of these exceptions every time I load the webpage that I'm working on which makes doing anything else difficult. I managed to switch off this behavior by enabling Silverlight debugging because apparently the debugger can only work with one of the other.
But now the browser keeps telling me about the same exceptions even though I've disabled script debugging and have de-selected 'Display a notification about every error'.
So how do I stop Visual Studio from telling me about numerous Javascript exceptions that I can't do anything about? Why can one not just configure it to, 'do not debug javascript from the following domains'?
In my page, I have to display confirm message box with some condition. It should not display always. I have written below code, but its giving errror.
ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, this.GetType(), "confirm", "return confirm('Are you sure');", true);
I can't do like below code, because I am getting some value at runtime and i need to check. btnLogout.Attributes.Add("onclick","return confirm('Do you really want to log out?
I'm having a registration form with textboxes that have more than one validator, e.g. a requiredfieldvalidator and a comparevalidator. I want the error message to show up on the right side of the textbox, but because I use more than one error message, one of them is not neatly next to the textbox, but further away from it.
I am using 4 required field validators,4 regular expression validators and 4 compare validators for 4 text boxes.Is it possible to show error messagesin an alert or message box when validation fails?If possible please send code sample.
I have searched and Googled for the answer to this question to no avail. I'm using EF4 and ASP.NET MVC2 and I have an EF4 entity "Award" with a non-nullable string field, "RecipientID". I'm using DataAnnotations for server-side validation, so in my "Award" partial class I've set up the RecipientID to have the Required attribute. When I try to submit the form with the RecipientID text box empty, I see my error message "Please enter a recipient" in the Html.ValidationSummary twice.
Would this be because the error is being thrown both by the entity (in that it is a non-nullable field with a null value), as well as the application? Whatever the reason, is there a way to "fix" this and have the error message show up only once? (Fix being in quotations because I'm not sure if this is intended behavior or not.) I didn't think it would be necessary to include relevant code, but I will if it's needed.
In the global.asax file, I capture the error details (if one occurs) and I have it send that error detail to an email address.
I am finding that it's reporting all sorts of strange ones when the website gets hit with a crawler....or at least I think it is. ( HTTP_USER_AGENT: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; Synapse)).
The following are common errors that repeat multiple times at the same date and time:
Error Message: Input string was not in a correct format. Error Message: Invalid character in a Base-64 string. Error Message: Unable to validate data. Error Message: The serialized data is invalid.
In my app i have a master page that all content pages use. I would like to have a centralized area inside my master page that would handle displaying of error messages. So on my master page I would have the following this is where the content goes So when I would submit a content page, placeholder named "ErrorPlaceHolder" would be found and error would be displayed in the pages "Pre Render" event..I guess. How would I do that?
Required field validator error message is disappeared, after post back event. how to maintain the Required field validator error message on post back also?
Is there a way to use DataAnnotations for validation, particulary in MVC, while relying on a custom resource provider ?
I built a custom SQL based resource provider for the asp.net side of my MVC application. At this point I'm down in the model section and want to use DataAnnotations for validation. Something like ...
I have the this current design. I use a web service/jquery perform client-side validation and to return 1 of 4 integers. At present I store it in a hidden field but it could be passed directly. I then deploy4 validators that when validated, validate the integer and trigger a custom error message. The ideal scenario I would like to be able to do this with one validator and switch the error message accordingly. On the server side the code could look like this:
[Code]....
As you can see my error messages are held as strings elsewhere which I reference for continuity throughout the project. unformtunately I don't know how to achieve this client-side by calling a javascript function. Sure I could hard code the messages in the javascript file as well, but this would mean that they were held in two places and suseptable to error. It may be an option to return an error message in the web service rather than an integer and trigger if it is blank.
I have a validation summary (vs) and required field validator (rfv) on my page. The validation groups are not set in either of the controls. When I leave javascript on, the rfv fires correctly and the error message appears in the vs, as well as a * appearing next to the textbox I am validating. When I set the EnableClientScript=False for the rfv (forcing a postback and server side validate), the * appears, but the error message doe not appear in the vs. Why is the error not appearing in the vs? The fact that the * is appearing shows that the validator is being fired.
I am new to jQuery. i place the return false to stop postback, that postback is stopped, but error messages are appearing. How can disappear the message by click cancel button. I used e.preventDefault() also it not working. here my code:
