I use an asp Login control with WebControlCaptcha as shown in the above code. The problem is that the captcha control always returns false when UserValidated method is called. I tried to use captcha control on another webpage without the login control it works.
I can't seem to get any sort of validator to fire when validating my DropDownList. I just want to make sure that it isn't left at "--Select--" when the user presses the Add button on the page. I've tried a range validator and required field validator and neither seem to fire at all. My DropDownList contains ID which is an int that is hidden and Name which is a string that is displayed. The ID is -1 for "--Select--". I use these all the time and can't understand why the page in this new solution is any different from other solutions I have done in the past. What have I missed?
I have 2 text boxes one for first name and one for last name. If the user enters a first name then the last name cannot be empty. Is there a validation control i can use and how can i display the message in the validation summary.
We are developing an Intranet application that looks up some data for a user through hooks into Active Directory. However, our Network guys don't always enter in a users email address when creating a new user. Therefore, our user database is missing the email address for over half of our users. We have over 10,000 users, therefore asking them to enter 5000+ email addresses into each missing email address field in Active Directory isn't an option. I already know how to validate that an email address is correctly formatted using Regex. What I need is a way to lookup the email address entered in the email address textbox and see if it exists on Outlook/Exchange (or looking up the email address using the First Name/LastName would work). If it does exist then the address is valid, if it is invalid then the user typed in the wrong address. I've tried to do something with CDO, but have had no luck. We use Outlook 2003 and ASP.NET 2.0.
I have a textbox that is set to readonly so users won't try to type something in it. It is then populated when a treenode is clicked. I want to validate what is in the box after it's populated from the treenode click but if i have it set to readonly, in the codebehind it shows up as an empty string. if i take the readonly off it shows up populated. what would you do about this?

I have 2 textboxes in my page. One is supposed to hold the Date and the other Time. These 2 data are merged when saving into one database field having a datetime datatype. Upon retrieve, the datetime field value is split into 2 and put into the Date Textbox and Time TextBox.
Upon input, when I am trying to update, the validator always says "Invalid Time."

Is it possible to validate a date format when you use a form view to enter the record into the database? I have a form view that is used to sign out for the day or week. I need to dates to be in mm/dd/yyyy format. Is there someway to use the validation controls so that it won't let you enter the record unless it is correct and will prompt them to enter the right info.

I'm adding RequiredField validators to a group of RadioButtonList controls, and something strange is happening when the page loads. The page renders just fine with no validators tripped, but as soon as I click on one of the radio buttons, the validator for that RadioButtonList fires and shows me the error message. I initially thought that maybe the various validators were cross-linked, so I tried clicking on a radio button in every list, but they all react the same. Here's the code that generates the whole thing:
I'm creating an quiz application which queries the database and extracts the questions and choices. I use dynamically created controls such as a checkbox list and fill the values dynamically. How do I do this? Right now I have these functions:
array_random_init(); this creates a 10 element integer array from 1-20
- extract_question(i): this extracts a question indexed at i in DB, I created the controls and set the appropriate text in this function.
- validate_question(i); this is called by button_click and validates the question i according to DB.
I understand I have to recreate the controls in Page_init on postback, but what should it look like? Do I need to add "if IsPostBack" in page_init, or do I create the controls in page_init() and reset their properties in page_load when I use extract_question(i)? Also, I cannot seem to clear the selected boxes on postback, I added page directive enableviewstate=false" but it doesn't work. What's the right way to do it?
I have a web app that has two listboxes on the page. The first listbox has selection items that can be chosen and moved over with back and forward buttons to the destination listbox.
I can't figure out how to validate the destination listbox for empty items on a postback. I have tried to use a custom validator, but I can't get the validator to fire unless I actually select one of the items with the mouse.
I'm trying to make sure a user selects a date in the calendar by checking for it with OnItemInserting command...since I can't just use a validation control. what I need to adjust in this code behind to cancel the request and activate the label when no date is selected? Apparently looking for an empty or null value won't work...

I have created the user control and it has got one table with few rows in it. One row has got a text box with custom validaor and other row will have check boxes dynamically added through server side.
On the main page, i am loading that user control about 10-15 times depending upon the values from the database.
Is there any way of setting the properties of user control validator on the main page? Text box will only be validated if any check box is checked in the user control.
I am also not able to find the usercontrols through the main page.
I need to validate that a user makes a selection from a select list OR they enter text into a textbox. I'm trying to figure out which validator to use. Is there a way to make a CompareValidator do this? Or would I need to write a custom validator? If custom, do I write one for each of the form elements, or does the validation happen upon submit?
I'm experimenting with validating forms in the asp.net MVC framework. I'm focusing on server side validation for the time being. I've come across an error that I'm not sure how to rectify. System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. The code that throws the error is:
[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)] public ActionResult Create([Bind(Exclude="ID")] MembersCreate mc ) { mc.Modules = ModuleListDataContext.GetModuleList(); ViewData.Model = mc; //Validation using ModelState // // //line below errors when form field is empty // if ((string)mc.Member.Username.Trim() == "") ModelState.AddModelError("Member.Username", "Username is required."); if (!ModelState.IsValid) return View(); try { // TODO: Add insert logic here return RedirectToAction("Index","Home"); } catch { return View(); } }
When I put spaces in the field it performs exactly as i want, but if I leave the field blank and press submit I get the error. What's the best way to avoid this error and still validate blank form fields?
