Web Forms :: Set Validator ErrorMessage Text?
Mar 17, 2010
I have a table that displays data by year. The year headings and data selections are dynamically generated, so that the code does not need to be changed every year. Each cell has 2 validators on it, and the ErrorMessages for each validator needs to say the item and the year. On top of that, the validators are in FormView templates. I know how to set the ErrorMessage text in code behind, but I am wondering if there is a way to do it more efficiently. Right now for each cell I have to code:
string Year1_Text = ...code to set the year...
RequiredFieldValidator Year1_Item1 = (RequiredFieldValidator) FormView1.Findcontrol("Year1_Item1RequiredFieldValidator");
Year1_Item1.ErrorMessage = Year1_Text + " Data Item Is Required";
CompareValidator Year1_Item1 = (CompareValidator) FormView1.Findcontrol("Year1_Item1CompareValidator");
Year1_Item1.ErrorMessage = Year1_Text + " Data Item Must Be Numeric";
With 5 years and 10 data items, that will be a LOT of code. Is there an easier way?

My understanding is that the ErroMessage is supposed to be displayed in a ValidationSummary control. My page does not have a ValidationSummary and I set the RequiredValidator's Text property to empty. I expected that nothing would be displayed when the validated control is invalid, but the ErrorMessage shows up at the place where Text is supposed to be. I am wondering if this is normal.
BTW, ValidatorCalloutExtender is used. Is this a cause?
Now I have to set the Display property to None to avoid any displaying anything. This is not a big deal, but I am curious.

I have a validator on a textbox that validates against a list to ensure that the user doesn't input the same name. When testing it, if I type in the same name including the same case structure, it returns an error. If I change one letter to a different case, it doesn't return an error but rather my SQL server returns a duplicate error. How do I change the server-side validator so that it picks up duplicate names regardless of case?

I have more than two text boxes in my web form.Now I want to validate either of the text boxes value is empty then only user should get error message i.e enter either text values.
For ex: There are two text boxes Phone no and Name. If user clicks on submit button without entering in either of text boxes then only user will get error message i.e enter either phone no. or your name .I can use the javacript in order to solve this case but I want to know is there any control in asp.net to solve this purpose?

I have a project I'm working on, which is basically filling in a form online. The form contains multiple pages, and I have replicated this using a MultiView. On one of the pages I have a CustomValidator which validates a driving licence, based on names/previousnames and the date of birth.If the validation fails, I want to enter a link into the text, which will allow the user to click on it and correct the information that is erroneous.

I need to add a Required Field Validator to a text box on my page. When I add the validator the following happens when I run the page:
When I click the submit button the page doesn't submit because the page is invalid. No error message displays despite my having set the ErronMessage. When I click inside the text box that has the Validation, then the Required error message shows. When that textbox loses focus the error message goes away. The only way I can get the page to function correctly is if I create 2 Validators for the same text box. The first validator is set to have an ErrorMessage of "" and the second one is a regular error message.
I have used these before many upon many times and never experienced this. Below you will find the Source code.
[Code]....
This code is the only way I am able to get the validation to function correctly where the ErrorMessage displays when I leave the field blank. I appreciate any help on resolving this issue. I have deleted/re-added the validation control many times. This is the only page this type of error happens on.

Is there a way to bind MinimumValue or MaximumValue of RangeValidator in it's own ErrorMessage declaratively (in .aspx file)?
I want to do something like
<asp:RangeValidator id="validator1" runat="server".... ErrorMessage="Please enter a value between <%# validator1.MinimumValue %> and <%# validator1.MaximumValue %> />
I would then set validator1.MinimumValue or validator1.MaximumValue in PageLoad, because I get those values from a database.

I have come unstuck with a simple compare validation.
I have the following code
<asp:TextBox ID="tbxHowMany" runat="server"
style="z-index: 1; left: 310px; top: 385px; position: absolute; text-align: center;"
Width="75px"></asp:TextBox>[code]....
So when a user enters a figure higher than 200, the validation appears.However, when I change this figure to say, 30, the validation remains. I must be doing something really stupid, I just don't know what!
UPDATE: I have also just noticed that this validation occurs when a number greater than '20' is entered into the checkbox. I'm not very confused. I am assuming this is a type issue?

When 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?

Either ErrorMessageString or ErrorMessageResourceName must be set, but not both.
It is coming from the [Required] Validation DataAnnotation.

I've boiled my view model down to this(it breaks any time there is a [Required] attribute, works fine without):
[Required(ErrorMessage = "")]
[DataType(DataType.Text)]
[DisplayName("Property Name")]
public string MyProperty { get; set; }
My controller returns an empty ViewModel, and the form in the view is completely blank...just a submit button.

I am using recaptcha in an ASP.NET 3.5 application and for some odd reason the ErrorMessage property is not working. Below is my code
<recaptcha:RecaptchaControl ID="recaptcha" runat="server" PublicKey="*******************************" PrivateKey="*******************" Theme="white" ErrorMessage="This is an typo error" />
When the typed text doesn't match with the recaptcha image text it still shows the default error message "Incorrect. Try again." instead of my custom error message. What could be the reason for this strange behavior

I'm not able to set errorMessage for DataType attribute.
Here is sample code :
[DataType(DataType.Currency, ErrorMessage = "Please enter a number")]
But in the ValidationSummary it is displayed:
The value 'sdf' is not valid for StartPrice. Other attributes like Required, StringLength or Range work fine.
I had to remove validationSummary and display messages with <%= Html.ValidationMessageFor() %> nearby input fileds but it is not the solution.

I've got a CreateUserWizard control and am performing server-side validation. Is there a way to force the CUW's error message to display from the code-behind? At the moment, if the user enters a duplicate name, the controls DuplicateUserNameErrorMessage property is displayed. However, if the user has turned javascript off, or sends a custom POST header, with invalid characters, I rely on my server-side validation to catch the error. How can I then display the same error message in the control's ErrorMessage label, instead of creating a custom label and faking it?

I thought my issue was related to the Validators not working in UpdatePanels but that does not seem to be the case.
All validators fire when they should but, the error warning message clears when the updatepanel updates.
for example...
textbox1 range 1 to 23. dropdown1 updates the updatepanel. enter 99 error shows, but will disapear when I change value of dropdown1. textbox1 value still 99 so validator message should still show but it does not.
