Try testing page validity in the onclick event of your btnSave :
if(Page.IsValid)
{
//Do your stuff
}
else
{
Response.Write("error");
}
Question
I feel embarrassed to be posting this as I'm pretty sure I'm missing something really simple, and this certainly isn't the first time I've used asp validators. I have the following validator controls:
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtTitle" EnableClientScript="false" ErrorMessage="*" ValidationGroup="groupUpdateAL" />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator2" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtAbbr" EnableClientScript="false" ErrorMessage="*" ValidationGroup="groupUpdateAL" />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="ddlColour" EnableClientScript="false" ValidationGroup="groupUpdateAL" ErrorMessage="*" />
<asp:Button ID="btnSave" runat="server" Text="Save" ValidationGroup="groupUpdateAL" CausesValidation="true" /><br />
For some reason, if leaving the controls empty I am given the following error:
Length cannot be less than zero.
Parameter name: length
It seems the validation controls aren't catching an invalid input.
What I've Tried:
I suspected it may have been client validation intercepting the postback, which is why you can see EnableClientScript is set to false now. Didn't work.
Solution
Try testing page validity in the onclick event of your btnSave :
if(Page.IsValid)
{
//Do your stuff
}
else
{
Response.Write("error");
}
