Web Forms :: How To Use CompareValidator Validation Control
Jan 11, 2011
I have 2 text boxes in which I am comparing the numeric value of one to the other. At first it works fine and I get the appropriate error message. But eventually as i plug in different numbers although I should be getting an error message I stop getting one. Is there something going on behind the scenes to fire the error message than I am unaware of. Also the error message fires some time when the value is less than the value of another control and equal to the value. I only want it to fire when it is less than the value of the other control.

What is the best way to debug a CompareValidator that always fails the validation? Is there any way to see what the values are that it's comparing to maybe get a clue as to what's going wrong?

Using a CompareValidator control in GridView. I am validating a value by comparing it to another value found at different cell at edit time. My code found below and perfectly working as expected. Now, how to further make this code to dynamically work based on a flag (checkbox) found in a third cell?
Via RowDataBound
[Code]....
To elaborate more, here is my pseudo code example
If the FLAG cell is checked then, any input number should pass the validation. The Checkbox value is unchecked by default.

I have the following template defined within DetailsView ( DetailsView is bound to object data source ):
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtReleaseDate" runat="server"
Text='<%# Bind("ReleaseDate", "{0:d}") %>'>
</asp:TextBox>
<asp:CompareValidator ID="valReleaseDateType" runat="server"
ControlToValidate="txtReleaseDate" Type="Date" Operator="DataTypeCheck"
Display="Dynamic" > *
</asp:CompareValidator>
</EditItemTemplate>
Assuming I enter into TextBox txtReleaseDate a date in format month/day/year, then upon clicking an Update or Insert button, a CompareValidator control complains that date format is not valid. But if I enter date in format day/month/year, then object data source throws an exception Cannot convert value of parameter 'releaseDate' from 'System.String' to 'System.DateTime', while CompareValidator doesn't complain. I need the two controls to accept the same date format, so:
a) Since my DB stores date in format day/month/year, the best option would be for ODS to also accept this as valid date format. Can ODS be configured that way?
b)Can CompareValidator be configured to also accept month/day/year format?

I am creating dropdown controls in code behind. in some conditions I need to add validation control to dropdowlist. But Validation not firing when I submit button.
If mQuestion.RequiredToAnswer = True Then
Dim mValidator As New RequiredFieldValidator
mValidator.ControlToValidate = mDDL.ID
mValidator.InitialValue = mDDL.Items(0).Text
mValidator.Display = ValidatorDisplay.Dynamic
mValidator.ErrorMessage = "* Required!"
mTableCell.Controls.Add(mValidator)
End If
I have other dropdown controls on aspx page with validation comtrols. Those are working fine. Only when I ddl and validations from code not working?

<asp:TextBox id="txtDate1" runat="server" />
<asp:CompareValidator runat="server" ErrorMessage="The date must be greater than today"
ControlToValidate="txtDate1" type="date"
ValuetoCompare="DateTime.Today.ToShortDateString()" />
and i got an error stating that the value of DateTime.Today.ToShortDateString() of the ValueToCompare property of "" cannot be converted to type 'date' i also tried ValueToCompare="DateTime.Now.Date()" and i got the same error message.

I have a text for user inputs Date. There is a CompareValidator which is used to compare Date between 2 TextBoxes. User do not need to input separator. After finish inputting value, he presses Tab to call a Javascript function to Format value of this Textbox.
Ex : user inputs
TextBox1 (From) : 01012010 =>Press TAB =>Value : 01/01/2010.
TextBox2 (To) : 01022010 =>Press TAB =>Value : 01/02/2010.
But Compare Validator show Error after cursor leaves the TextBox2. If I choose these values from Date Picker => No problem.
I think Compare Validator is called before onblur event. Is that right?
If it is right, is there any way to do my work?

I have two textboxes and a CompareValidator attempting to ensure that TextBox_1 contains a date that comes on or before the one in TextBox_2. When one textbox contains a date in "MM/dd/yyyy" format, and the other uses "M/d/yyyy", and the only difference between the two is a leading zero in the "MM" part, my validator fails to recognize that the dates are equal.
I've solved the problem by using the same format for both, but I'm wondering what's going on.
(I'd post the code, but there are so many layers -- controls using inherited classes, etc. -- that it would be more than a bit difficult to make sense out of ...)

I have a Gridview with a number of Template fields, where the values are all binded to a DB.
I can handle the validation in the codebehind (C#) fine, as far as that singe control.
BUT
I want the validation to be dependent on one of the controls in a Different TemplateField
ie.
Template A
Template B
Template c
Template B & C dependent on Template A

Maybe Client side validation ? But how to do this ?

I have a compare validator to validate an entry of course. And so, I set my compare validator to validate a textbox and its type to DOUBLE. Even if I input a double value (i.e. 150.24) on the text box, still the page cannot proceed on the next statement because the error message of the validator always display.

I had been doing a type check for Double for an input field on a web page but now I need to allow commas. Can this be done using a CompareValidator or do I need to use a regex validator?

I'm trying to get a CompareValidator to work but having a few problems. If the submit button does not run a function it works fine, but the validator does not work if there is a function attached to the button.
Here's the code.
Sub myGo(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
response.redirect("http://www.google.co.uk")
End Sub
and
<form runat="server">
<asp:TextBox id="txt1" runat="server" /> = <asp:TextBox id="txt2" runat="server" /> <asp:Button OnClick="myGo" Text="not working with onclick" runat="server" /> <asp:Button Text="working button" runat="server" />
<br />
<asp:CompareValidator EnableClientScript="false" id="compval" Display="dynamic" ControlToValidate="txt1" ControlToCompare="txt2" Type="String" Text="Validation Failed!" runat="server" />
</form>

I have a salary TextBox and an associated CompareValidator, which is setup as follows:
<asp:CompareValidator ... Operator="DataTypeCheck" Type="Currency" />
I fill the TextBox with a formatted string out of the database:
txtSalary.Text = myObject.Salary.ToString("N2")
When a user accesses the page using a French culture (such as fr-ca), the ToString method will put 80 000,00 in the textbox, which is fine.However, any number with a space in it causes the validator to fail, which is not fine. Is there any way to make the CompareValidator work properly with non-US formatted numbers?
