I have custom control with ASP.Net validators.
writer.AddAttribute(HtmlTextWriterAttribute.Onclick, "javascript:return DoSmth();");
function DoSmth() {
var cBox = confirm("Are you sure?");
if (!cBox) {
return false;
}
else {
//Invoke validation
}
When I push button submit, I call confirm box. If I press cancel - all right. But if I press ok, I need to do validation. How can I stop postback and do valiadation?
I encouter some postback issue when using GetPostBackEventReference. Here is the Scenario:I have a javascript modal popup dialog and got a button in this modal dialog which used to select things (this is NOT an asp:button control)
When this javascript dialog HTML button is clicked, it will call the MS AJAX web service call by the javascript: eval() method. And this MS AJAX web service call is dynamically generated. So the code is like this:
var serviceCall = svcCall + "(" + parameters + ")"; //dynamically generate the MS AJAX web service call here
eval(serviceCall);
//use eval to trigger the MS AJAX web service call
As you may all know, after complete the MS AJAX web service, you can define a callback function to handle the completion:
function OnComplete(result, userContext, methodName) {
//force to call postback manually
eval($(userContext[0]).val()); [code]...
As you can see, this is how I bound the asp:button (i.e. btnSelectUser) 's Click Event to the asp:hiddenfield using the GetPostBackEventReference, and set the registerForEventValidation argument to false. I have also tried to use different ValidationGroup and set the CausesValidation to false.In summarize, I bound the asp:button's Click PostBackEventReference(i.e. __doPostback(....)) to the asp:hidden field's Value attribute, and using javascript eval() to eval this hidden field's value in order to manually trigger postback.
p.s. the btnSelectUser is an asp:button control and used to call out the javascript modal dialog.
Ok, here is the Problem:In the same page, there is some asp:validator, e.g. and , and of coz, when the page run into error, this validator and callout will display to the user. e.g. When the user didn't fill in anything and submit the form, the ValidatorCalloutExtender will display a ballon and tell the user. Imagine one of this ballon/validatorCalloutExtender come out and on top of your screen at the moment.
Then you click the btnSelectUser (asp:button) to show the javascript modal dialog, and in the dialog, you Add some users, and once you hit the SELECT button inside this modal dialog, a MS AJAX web service is trigger as mentioned above, and once this web service is complete, it eval() the asp:hidden field's value (i.e. __doPostback(...))......and do the postback manually.
However, because of the validatorCalloutExtender ballon has display, it somehow cannot trigger the postback in this way, but when I close the ballon/validatorCalloutExtender, the manual postback using eval() is just working fine. Even more strange is that, when the ballon is displayed, the first time I click the SELECT button inside this modal dialog it doesn't fire the postback, however, if I do the same thing again (i.e. open up the javascript dialog, and choose some users, then click the SELECT button again). It able to do the manual postback....and I don't understand why the first time doesn't work.

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.
I have a div where I put a lot of stuff on runtime to construct a chart. The user should be able to copy the chart to another div (innerHTML) and then make som adjustments to the original div, which causes a postback. Of cours the cloned div comes back empty.
So I'm thinking of putting the entire innerHTML in a session variable at page_unload, but then I run into the validation problem. I've tried using a hiddenfield as an in-between control, but it's the same, and it seems you can't use the CausesValidation on that control. I've also tried a regular asp:textbox, but the CausesValidation doesn't have any effect.
How to do this? Or any better way all together on the copy-chart issue?
I have a bit of javascript that presents a modal to the user with the rest of the page "grayed out." Pretty common these days. The modal allows you to specify a URL which then uses AJAX to serve and display. What I need is that when the control posts back, it posts back to the parent page, not the modal page. To attempt this, I used javascript to alter the target of the modal page's form element to the parent page's URL. When I try this I get the following error:
Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machineKey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster.
This is done locally and as of now, the app will never be on a cluster. I think this has to do with the validation process and .NET doesn't like that I've changed the target. Anyone know a way around this? I really need this to work how I described.
I'm trying to prevent data from loading on the page when its needed.
Currently, I check the IsPostBack bool to prevent loading data in my user controls which allows the data to be loaded when the page is initially requested.
However, if my page fails validation and the page is sent back to the user with error messages, my user controls no longer have data in them because the initial request was a postback.
One solution is to have a flag in every user control (IsFailedPostBack) to force them to reload their data. Is there a better way?

I'm having trouble with an image button I create via c# in an event causing page validation to occur on postback. The CausesValidation attribute is set to false at time of creation in the event. I also wire up the Click event in the page_init with postback so not to loose the event handler if the page posts another way. Here is the code I'm using in the click event of a Button. I've also tried to enable and disable viewstate for the button with no luck. What am I missing here that continues to fire page validation in the Click of this imagebutton?

I'm using some of the typical ASP.NET's Validation Controls in my website. Now I'm trying to disable the JavaScript in my browser to test my application and of course the Validation Controls no longer works. I think it's best to try to make them work using one of the solutions down here instead of reinvesting the wheel and build a validation layer for the page or my objects -Am I thinking right?-
What do you think of these options and why:
Include in clicked button's event a code to check if the page is valid and if not explicitly call the Page.Validate(); method Check if whether the JavaScript is enabled and if not I should call Page.Validate();
