| Hi Brad,
|
| Welcome to ASPNET control newsgroup.
| from your description, you're developing a custom composite web control
and
| there're some entry fields and validation controls in the composte
control.
| Currently you found that the validator controls will always validate the
| input in all the postback events on the page, so you're wondering any
means
| to make them invoking validation only when the postback is raised by the
| button in your custom control?
|
| If anything I misunderstand, please feel free to let me know.  As for the
| ASP.NET's page validation model in 1.X , all the validation controls on
the
| page are in the same scope , so any submit button's postback on the page
| will cause the validation take place (as long as that button's set to
| causeValidation=true....).    In ASP.NET 2.0, we can resolve this
problems
| through defining ValidationGroup for our custom control's validators....
|
| Currently what I can got to workaround the problem in 1.1 may be creating
a
| custom Validator control to do the validation in our custom composite
| control. We can put our code logic in the overrided validation function
to
| determine whether to do the validtion or not (only when the post back in
| invoked by the button in our composite control  .....). This checking can
| be done through check the Page's Request.Forms collection to see whether
| the submit button's UniqueID is in it...
|
| If you have any other consideration or concerns, please feel free to post
| here.

| Actually the problem was far simpler.  My custom control included an
| hyperlink using the htmlanchor object.  For some reason this was causing
the
| problem....and replacing it with a hyperlink webcontrol resolved the
| problem.
|
| Thank you for your time.

| Hey Brad,
|
| Have you got any further idea on this?  I've just made some further test
| and seems we can do some certain trick in our composite control's code. My
| current approach is just set the validator's Enabled property to false in
| CreateChildControl....
|
| Then, we override our Custom Control's OnLoad method , there when
postback,
| the validation hasn't take place.... , we can check the Page.Request.Form
| collection to see whether the postback is caused by the button in our
| composite control. If so, set validator's Enabed to true and manually call
| validator's Validate() function, else, set to false....
|
| Also, this approach need to disable clientside validation (since the
| enabled state we set in Onload will be persisted take effect  at
clientside
| ).    If you also need the clientside validation occurs only for our
| composte control's sub buttons, we may have to register some custom
| clientscript which manually call the validator's clientside validation
| function. I think it is also possible, just refer to the following msdn
| article which describe the asp.net 1.x validation control's clientside
| behavior in detail:
