I have compare validators that I build on the fly in code behind that validate textboxes that are also built up in the code behind:

These work fine until a postback occurs. After a postback they still validate the form (i.e. they don't let you postback) but the error message won't display.
I've got a booking form which allows users to pick dates. User clicks FromDate button which activates calendar control, they select date from calendar which then populates a textBox. I have a compare validator which checks that the SelectedDate is greater than the current date, if the SelectedDate is in the past then the validator fires error message. This works as fine, however, when the validator fires it disables the FromDate button so the user is unable to pick another date from the calendar as the focus goes to the TextBox which is being validated - how do I get around this? Here's the code:

I have an aspx page with lots of controls on it. I am using a custom validator control (with the serverside validation). Is there a way to display the error message on the validation summary without writing Javasccript. I am a beginner in .NET and am not fluent in Javascript. This is the custom validator HTML
<asp:CustomValidator ID="CustomValidator1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Invalid Date"
ControlToValidate="txtDate" OnServerValidate="ValidateDate_ServerValidate" ValidationGroup="vgSetUp"
></asp:CustomValidator>
This is the utility method am trying to validate for the entry on the UI, so that it takes dates only in these described formats If the user enters date in any other format, this method returns returns the Datetime.Mivalue(1/1/0001)
public DateTime GetFomattedDate(string dateString)
{
try
{
string[] formats = {
"MMddyyyy", // These are the accepted date formats for the UI
"MM/dd/yyyy",
"M/d/yyyy",
"yyyy/MM/dd",
"yyyy/M/d"
};
DateTime EffDate = DateTime.MinValue;
if ( DateTime.TryParseExact(dateString,formats, null, System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.None, out EffDate))
{
return EffDate;
}
}
catch (Exception)
{
throw;
}
return DateTime.MinValue;
}
This is my customvalidator event handler(code behind)
protected void ValidateDate_ServerValidate(object source,servervalidate eventargs args)
{
args.IsValid = GetFomattedDate(args.Value) ==DateTime.MinValue? false:true;
}
I am able to validate it properly, but I cannot display the error message in the validation summary along with other messages. Anyone who is expert on Javascript can Help with the javascript function?
When attempting to place controls in different content areas using Masterpages and trying to use a compare validator, I get the error: Unable to find control id 'txtStartDate' referenced by the 'ControlToCompare' property of 'cvlDate'. I have also attempted to set it within the c# code behind in page load: cvlDate.ControlToCompare = txtStartDate.ID and by using findControl there must be an easy way to achieve this?
<asp:Content ID="Content4" ContentPlaceHolderID="leftForm" Runat="Server">

I am using compare validator to compare date... But Its not working ...I have used calendar extender...with date format as "dd/MM/yyyy"...
View 3 RepliesWhen it comes to field validation, when I use a Compare Validator to make sure a date is a date or a numeric field has a number, I must also use a Required Field Validator to make sure there is something actually enetered. In other words, the Compare Validator allows a blank value even though a blank is not a date or number or whatever.
Is using both a Required Field Validator and a Compare Validator the way to do this or is there some way to make the Compare Validator also require input of some kind?
I got this an asp.net 3.5 page that and I have few tabs (telerik tabs control with pageview) and I have panel on the top of the page and inside that has a label control displaying error message if it's any.
At the moment, if I want to display this, at the end of the event clicked button for instance, I have to do a custom URL redirection class to itself passing error message and display the error. BUT the problem with this approach let say you are working on 4th tabs and you click save button inside this then you loose the state of series of control (what's is being choosed, selected, typed etc). The page refreshed and displayed at the first tab again.
I want to display the error and at the same time know the state is for every control on the 4th tabs and automatically goes to 4th tabs. BTW ... this validation is done through server level.
I am trying to check for a condition such that a date in an input control (textbox) is not greater from a date 1 years from current date(exactly) and also it should not be less than a date 1 year back from current date. for eg. if today's date is "21/dec/1990" then usen cannot enter a date in textbox which is less than 21/dec/89 and it should not be greater than 21/dec/1991. for this i first tried to confirm the greater than condition, i wrote the following code:
<asp:TextBox
ID="TxtSessionFrom"
runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:CompareValidator
ID="CompareValidator1"
runat="server"
ControlToValidate="TxtSessionFrom"
ErrorMessage="CompareValidator"
Operator="GreaterThanEqual"
Type="Date"></asp:CompareValidator>
CompareValidator1.ValueToCompare=(DateTime.Now.AddYears(1).ToString());
but this gave an error: The value '' of the ValueToCompare property of 'CompareValidator1' cannot be converted to type 'Date'.

I am working in asp.net 2.0 application programing.
How to use a compare validator for comparing two date.
All of the examples I can find show the compare validator being used to see if two values are the same. Validation is succesfull if these values are the same, such as password confirmation.I want validation to succeed if values are not the same. I want to use this to be sure that someone doesn't enter the same value for two phone number fields. I want the two values to be different. Can the compare validator be used for this? I wasn't able to find any properties or examples that used it in this way. If not, how should this be done?

View 12 RepliesI have an AJAX Calendar extender that puts the date in the textbox in this format: MMMM d, yyyy. I also have a compare validator control that does at DataTypeCheck for DATE. However, when the Calendar Extender enters the date as MMMM d, yyyy (eg. November 2, 2010) the compare validator doesn't like it. It only seems to like the date in the format MM/dd/yy. Not sure how to get this compare validator to accept the input format from the calendar extender?

I have a date textbox. It has three validators on it. One is RequiredFieldValidator, second is CompareValidator and the third is RegularExpressionValidator.
CompareValidator checks for LessThanEqual for current date. For example if user enters date greater then todays' then it should display error message. It does that.
Problems is if user enters invalidate e.g., 2009/05/0d then I see two error messages. One for invalid date and one for compare. In this specfic case I want to see only one error that 'Date is invalid'. But some how I see two mesages.
iam having two text box for password and confirm password in usercontrol i want to validate these control using compare validator in mvc whether any difference is there between the ordinary .aspx and .ascx while using this compare validator.
View 1 RepliesI have a compare validator datatypecheck that was set up to check the date entered. I am now changing this to check to make sure that the date/time entered is valid. I changed the binding to be the date and time. I am not seeing anything that I need to change on the compare validator.
When I run the program and enter a date and time into the textbox, it is giving me the error that it is an invalid date. What am I missing?
In my asp.net page I have two DatePickers, String Format. I want to use the Ajax Compare Validator but is'nt validating my dates correctly. I Want to Validate that my StartDate is Equal or Less than my End Date. The problem is that when I select the operator LessThanEqual it only work when The StartDate is Less than the End Date. IF StartDate is equal or Greater than the End Date is Displays the Error Message. I change it to all the possible options and it won't work as I want.

It works on the clientside fine, but if a user has javascript disabled then it accepts 071873 which is not a date. Do I need to write a specific serverside function for this validator to work?
I am trying to see the validation part working. I have few required field validators and compare field validators, etc.
