validation controls are not validating on enabling on client side using java script, plz guide
- by haansi
Hi,
As per requirement I disabled all validation controls in page on PageLoad event in server side.
On clicking submit button I want to activate them and validate the page and if the page is ok submit other wise not.
I am able to enable all validaters but one thing that I am unable to understand is that they do not validate the page. I set alerts and check they are being enabled but they do not validate the page and let the page submit.
I am sorry I couldn't get where I am wrong, may be there need to call some validation method as well or I should prevent default behavior of button. please guide me.
Below is my script:
<script type="text/javascript">
function NextClicked() {
var _ddlStatus = document.getElementById("<%=ddlEmpStatus.ClientID%>");
var _selectedIndex = _ddlStatus.selectedIndex;
if (_selectedIndex == 0) {
alert("Nothing selected");
}<br/>
else<br/>
if (_selectedIndex == 1) {
for (i = 0; i < Page_Validators.length; i++) {
Page_Validators[i].Enabled = true;
}
}
}
</script>
thanks in anticipation.
