Web Forms :: Displaying A Summary Of Validation Errors As User Moves Between Views In MultiView?
Feb 3, 2011
I am using a MultiView control inside a FormView to break my form into more manageable sections for the end-user. I am trying to make it so that each time the Next button is clicked, the entire form is validated and a list of the fields that have not yet been completed show up in the Validation Summary.
I would like my users to be able to continue through the MultiView 'wizard' even if they haven't completed all the fields -- they should be able to come back to them later. But I would like the ValidationSummary to display the fields they've not completed that are required as a reminder of what to come back to if possible.
I've tried playing around with Page.IsValid with no success.
[Code]....
The code-behind for the Next button is as follows:
We have option in validation summary to show errors in messagebox. But at the same time errors also showed in the page. Any way to hide this. Because of page space i think to use popup but i dont want to siplay in the summary also.
I am learning MultiView control.Here are question:I added 5 views in the MultiView but all views are tight together. I can not drag and drop another control such as text boxes or labels into view area.
I am using one datalist control for uploading multiple images.I hv used one Asp:FileUplaod Control and one button in one itemtemplate.I am using reqired field validator and regular expression validator for file upload cntrl I am assigning validation group for both of them on ItemDataBound event of my datalist so that each upload cntrl hv same validaton group as required field and regular expression validator.Now what i want to do is - i want to show my error message in validation summary which is right at the top of the page.I want one know how to write javascript that will assign validation group of my control in datalist on which i click ?
I have the following markup. The errorPanel was first only used to show server side exception messages, and works fine like that. Now I'd like to incorporate my validation summary into that same errorPanel.
[code]....
My problem now is that the required validation happens client side, and I want to keep that, so I have no server side opportunity to make errorPanel visible, in order to make the validation summary visible.
I see I have two options: Do validation server side, and use my code there to make the panel visible, or hook into the client side code somehow and catch an event there when the summary should be made visible, and then also make the errorPanel visible. How could I go about the latter?
I am using JQuery for all of my client side validation and Asp.net validator controls for all of my server side validation. I am using an errorlabelcontainer to store the client side validations in a summary at the top of the page, which is the requirement. All works well. My problem is, I want to display the server side asp.net errors in the same errorlabelcontainer OR display all of the client side errors in the validation summary. Either way, Both errors need to be in the same place/div. Any ideas on how to do this? I thought of maybe using the asp.net validation summary as the errorcontainer in JQuery, but I cannot find the summary. This is what I have right now.

I've added a CompareValidator and ValidationSummary to a web page. The CompareValidator is working fine, but the validation summary never shows up even if I force a post back. I've verified that both controls have their ValidationGroup property set to the same value. Is there anything else that would cause this behavior?
I use the oob client side validation from mvc 2 RC. The input field validation errors are working fine. But the validation summary is missing. How to get the validation summary on client side validation?
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
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?
what i want to do is to set up different validation summary for different type of validators. for example, for required field validators, if user leaves some required field blank, it shows that "You have to fill in mandantory information, indicated with a star"
and if some format is wrong, it shows that "format is invalid"
right now, i set all requied field validators' text to be a star, and leave error message to be blank. so that the validation summart will only display the header message. that is what i need. what i dont know is how to separate regular expression into another summary.
i think the validation group property requires multiple buttons. however, i only want one submit button, and this is where i got stuck.
i have many validators but one validator RFVRIDDORReferenceId is enabled and disabled through javascript. because txtReferenceId is shown when something is selected from a dropdownlist. initially it is disabled. everything was working fine until i implemented EDIT functionality in which through an ID i need to load page and show everything...on serverside i enabled
RFVRIDDORReferenceId.Enabled = true;
if ReferenceId database field had value in it. other wise it stays like that. after loading the information on page and disable RFVRIDDORReferenceId through client side...press save button and everything will be updated but when page comes back validation summary has
Following errors occured > ReferenceId is required
it displays in red i dont know why it is doing it....(postback itself shows that all validators were true). is there any reason?
does validator validate themselve after postback? if yes then why does not remaining validators shows error message?
PS: its a required field validator and there are many other but validation summary shows only for this validator.
The ValidationSummary panel shows up, even if the validator does not have an 'ErrorMessage'. When I click on Submit with invalid login, the error shows up in summary. That part's fine. When I submit with empty textboxes, it should show only the '*', but it also shows an empty summary panel. How can I prevent this. [Have a css class for .summary,header, summary ul, .summary ul li].
JS:
function validateTextBox(sender, args) { var target = document.getElementById(sender.controltovalidate); var is_valid = target.value != "";
I am using asp.net validation controls in my application. the alert messages are showing in validation summary. now i should change the title(heading) of the alert(message) box.how to do this ?
I am using User controls in my web page. I have validation controls in my user control and the validation summary control is placed in the master page. Problem is I am not getting the errors displayed when I am running my application.
