usercontrol and clientside validation

[Ken]

Hi there,
I have a usercontrol and i have written sone clientside
validation script associated along with it. Now when i
register this usercontrol in the mainwebform, how can i
access the clientside validation to validate the
usercontrol?

Thanks in advance

Can you clarify what you mean by "validate the user control"? Are you
creating a control subclassed from System.Web.UI.WebControls.BaseValidator?

if i know I will never add any more controls to the page I will let the page
render. then I will look at the source. your elements will have id's like
"_ctl45_txbZipCode" or "_ctl45_txbName". I would then use these as the name
to validate against...

if (document.Form1['_ctl45_txbName'].value.length == 0) return false;

**NOTE: if you add controls to the page the "ctl45" may change to "ctl46"
and so on. so when updateing the page, make sure the javascript validation
code works.

whatever. sorry if this is not what you are talking about....

What you can do is define the validator in the page outside the user control and set its property to validate the controls inside the user control: ControlToValidate=”UserControlID1$TextBox1″
Refer to the blog:

You can use the format ControlToValidate="UserControlID$ControlID". This works with ValidationGroup property as well.
