Client side validators not emitting

I am unable to get ASP.NET to send down Javascript to my IE 6.0
browser for client side validation.

To simplify the problem I have the following code snippet in from User
Control that creates a validator and emits HTML for Textbox.

control = //my Textbox control
RequiredFieldValidator validator = new RequiredFieldValidator();
control.ID="testid";
validator.ControlToValidate = control.ID;
validator.EnableClientScript = true;

When the page emits no Javascript appears on the page related to
validation. In my
'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\1_1_4322' directory there
is a WebUIValidation.js file. So that doesn't seem to be the issue.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
John
 
figure out the problem.

control.Controls.Add(validator);

causes the validation to emit properly.
