Hi,

i've created a simple web application and throw in some labels,
textboxes and requiredfield validators in there.

during my testing using different browsers, i've noticed that when i was
using Mozilla browsers(Firebird[0.7 tech preview] and Mozilla[5.0]),
i've noticed that the validators are not being rendered in the page.
it's being rendered properly in IE.

is this considered a bug or by design in the ASP.NET engine that renders
the page?

regards,
Jonel
 
Did you make any changes to the target browser in the ASP.NET page
(Uplevel/Downlevel/IE)?

It could be a simple matter of the page rendering being targeted to IE and
not generic browsers.

Scott,

It didn't help, the page still does not render the requiredfield
validator even if i chose IE 3.02 or NS 3.0 in the targetSchema property.

thanks,

No, not the TargetSchema property (that just checks your code to see if it
adheres to the specific language syntax. The ClientTarget property is what
to be looking at.

Valid values are:

ie4
ie5
uplevel
downlevel

Scott,

Setting the ClientTarget property to uplevel renders the requiredfield
validator on the page, thanks. However, the validation is not being
called on the client side even though the EnableClientScript of the
validator is set to true, it still allows the page to post back even if
the control being validated is empty, but i guess this is now become a
browser issue.

thanks for the input,

Jonel
 
Hi,

I've added this code to the web.config file to render everything correctly,
even on mozilla browser, but the pageValidator.

<browserCaps>

<case match="Gecko/[-\d]+">

browser=Netscape frames=true tables=true cookies=true javascript=true
javaapplets=true ecmascriptversion=1.5 w3cdomversion=1.0 css1=true css2=true
xml=true tagwriter=System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter

<case match="rv:1.0[^\.](?'letters'\w*)"> version=6.0 majorversion=6
minorversion=0

<case match="^b" with="${letters}">

beta=true

</case></case><case match="rv:1(\.\d+)(\.\d)?(?'letters'\w*)">

version=7.0

majorversion=7

minorversion=0

<case match="^b" with="${letters}">

beta=true

</case></case></case>

</browserCaps>

ASP.NET engine performs validation on server side even if the validation
controls is not rendered on the page. If something fails it set the
Page.IsValid property to false.



handle this and everything wil work fine.



Hope This Helps
