RadMaskedTextBox ssn format - css

I have a RadMaskedTextBox for SSN while entering value in it, the first two characters are clearing up itself and getting RegularExpressionValidator message. Can some body help me in this.This problem exits in IE browsers only.
<span id="SSN" runat="server">*</span>Social Security Number</label>
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="TaxId_RegEx"
runat="server" ControlToValidate="TaxId"
Display="None" ValidationExpression="^\d{3}\-\d{2}\-\d{4}$" ErrorMessage="Please enter a valid 9 digit SSN." Enabled="true"></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="TaxId_ReqField"
runat="server" ControlToValidate="TaxId"
Display="None" ErrorMessage="Please enter a value for this required field."></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<radI:RadMaskedTextBox CssClass="box_SSN" SelectionOnFocus="SelectAll" ID="TaxId"
Width="85px" Mask="###-##-####" runat="server">
</radI:RadMaskedTextBox>

Try:
^\d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4}$
Instead of:
^\d{3}\-\d{2}\-\d{4}
This is working perfectly for me in IE:
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator
ID="RequiredFieldValidator1"
runat="server" ControlToValidate="TextBox1" Text="*">
</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator
ID="RegularExpressionValidator1"
runat="server"
ValidationExpression="\d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4}"
ControlToValidate="TextBox1"
ErrorMessage="Input valid SSN!">
</asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Submit"/>
Not sure why you have
Display="None"

Two validators for the same control not working

I'm trying to use two validators for the same control as shown in below code
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="tbEmail" placeholder="Enter email" class="form-control" required=""></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="tbEmail" ValidationGroup="DRF" Display="Dynamic"
ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*#\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*"></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator3" runat="server" ControlToValidate="tbEmail" ValidationGroup="DRF" Display="Dynamic"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
But the problem is the second validator works but the first validator doesnot. I tried flipping them but same thing happens.
What I have to do to make both of them work at the same time ?
Can you help me in this?
Add an ErrorMessage attribute to the regex validator like so:
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="tbEmail" ValidationGroup="DRF" Display="Dynamic"
ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*#\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*" ErrorMessage="Please enter a valid email address"></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>

Required and RegularExpression Validators taking up space

I'm having issues with asp.net's field validators taking up space on my page. I've searched around, and documentation says to use Display="Dynamic" to keep the validators from taking up space. When I use this however, the error messages are always displayed.
What am I doing wrong?
I just want the error messages to display when the user either clicks the "Save" button, or loses focus on a textbox. And I don't want the validators to take up space.
<p>Please enter a new email:</p>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" MaxLength="255" ID="TextBoxEmail" />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1"
ValidationGgroup="Email"
ErrorMessage="Please enter an email"
ControlToValidate="TextBoxEmail" runat="server"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator2"
ValidationGroup="Email"
ControlToValidate="TextBoxEmail"
ErrorMessage="Please enter valid email"
runat="server"
ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*#\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*" />
<p>Please re-enter your email:</p>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBoxEmail2" />
<asp:LinkButton ValidationGroup="Email" runat="server" Text="Save" OnClick="linkbuttonSave_Click" />
Only thing I notice in your code is you have a typo in ValidationGgroup="Email". It should be ValidationGroup="Email"
Other than that, Display="Dynamic" works for me.
After clicking, submit button -
<p>
Please enter a new email:</p>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" MaxLength="255" ID="TextBoxEmail" />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" ValidationGroup="Email"
ErrorMessage="Please enter an email" ControlToValidate="TextBoxEmail" runat="server"
Display="Dynamic"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator2" ValidationGroup="Email"
ControlToValidate="TextBoxEmail" ErrorMessage="Please enter valid email" runat="server"
ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*#\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*" Display="Dynamic" />
<p>
Please re-enter your email:</p>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="TextBoxEmail2" />
<asp:CompareValidator ID="PasswordCompare" runat="server" ControlToCompare="TextBoxEmail"
ControlToValidate="TextBoxEmail2" CssClass="failureNotification" Display="Dynamic"
ErrorMessage="Must match." ValidationGroup="Email"></asp:CompareValidator>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator3" ValidationGroup="Email"
ErrorMessage="Please enter an confirm email" ControlToValidate="TextBoxEmail2" runat="server"
Display="Dynamic"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" ValidationGroup="Email" runat="server" Text="Save"
OnClick="linkbuttonSave_Click" />
You can set the property Display to "Dynamic" or "none", the second one will cause the Error message to be displayed only in the validation summary.
I got it to work great by deleting the "ValidationGroup=.." . Havent looked what up what this does but it works great without it and not sure why it would be needed (given the validator controls have the control id of the email textbox)

I want validation expression for required field validator and the numeric validator together for phone number

I want validation expression for required field validator and the numeric validator together
for phone number
<asp:TextBox ID="txtPhonenumber" runat="server" MaxLength="11" TabIndex="11" onKeyPress="return validateNumbersOnly();" ></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator2" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Enter Phone Number" ControlToValidate="txtPhonenumber" ></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
this code works only if field is empty
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtPhonenumber" ErrorMessage="Only Numbers" Display="None" ValidationExpression="^\d+$" ></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
ValidationExpression="^\d+$"
use this for numeric format validation
<asp:TextBox ID="txtPhonenumber" runat="server" MaxLength="11" ></asp:TextBox><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Enter Phone Number" ControlToValidate="txtPhonenumber" ></asp:RequiredFieldValidator><asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtPhonenumber" ErrorMessage="Only Numbers" Display="None" ValidationExpression="^\d+$" ></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>

How to show validation control's Error messages in Alert box?

I am using 4 required field validators,4 regular expression validators and 4 compare validators for 4 text boxes.Is it possible to show error messages
in an alert or message box when validation fails?
If possible please send code sample.
Regards,
NSJ
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:Label ID="lblNameRequired" runat="server" Text="*Name :"></asp:Label>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtNameRequired" runat="server" ValidationGroup="Validation"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidatorName" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtNameRequired"
Display="None" ErrorMessage="Name is Required" ValidationGroup="Validation"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<br />
<asp:Label ID="lblGenderRequired" runat="server" Text="*Gender :"></asp:Label>
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlGenderRequired" runat="server" ValidationGroup="Validation">
<asp:ListItem Selected="True" Value="-1">--Select--</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="0">Male</asp:ListItem>
<asp:ListItem Value="1">Female</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
<asp:CompareValidator ID="CompareValidatorGender" runat="server" ControlToValidate="ddlGenderRequired"
Display="None" ErrorMessage="Gender is Required" Operator="NotEqual" ValidationGroup="Validation"
ValueToCompare="-1"></asp:CompareValidator>
<br />
<asp:Label ID="lblValidation" runat="server" Text="Fields marked with * are required"></asp:Label>
<br />
<asp:Button ID="btnValidate" runat="server" Text="Validate Input" ValidationGroup="Validation" />
<br />
<asp:ValidationSummary ID="ValidationSummary1" runat="server" ShowMessageBox="True"
ShowSummary="False" ValidationGroup="Validation" />
</form>
You should use the same ValidationGroup text on all validation controls and add a ValidationSummary with the ValidationGroup and ShowMessageBox="true"
Use the following code , just set the correct messeges that u want :
<asp:ValidationSummary ID="ValidationSummary1" ShowMessageBox ="true"
runat="server" />
<asp:textbox id="txt1" runat="server"></asp:textbox>
<asp:regularexpressionvalidator id="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server"
controltovalidate="txt1" errormessage="Please Enter Only Numbers" validationexpression="^[-+]?\d+(\.\d+)?$">
</asp:regularexpressionvalidator>
<asp:requiredfieldvalidator id="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" controltovalidate="txt1"
errormessage="please enter txt1">*</asp:requiredfieldvalidator>
<asp:textbox id="txt2" runat="server"></asp:textbox>
<asp:regularexpressionvalidator id="RegularExpressionValidator2" runat="server"
controltovalidate="txt2" errormessage="Please Enter Only Charcters" validationexpression="^[a-zA-Z\s.]*$">
</asp:regularexpressionvalidator>
<asp:requiredfieldvalidator id="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" controltovalidate="txt2"
errormessage="please enter txt2">*</asp:requiredfieldvalidator>
<asp:textbox id="txt3" runat="server"></asp:textbox>
<asp:requiredfieldvalidator id="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" controltovalidate="txt3"
errormessage="please enter txt3">*</asp:requiredfieldvalidator>
<asp:Button ID="btnok" runat="server" Text="ok"/>
Don't do it. Users hate alert box error messages. It is a horrible UI design. Put the error messages on the form where the user can read them and they stay while the user makes changes or moves on without having to click on an alert box. Especially when there are multiple corrections to be made, they need to be able to read the errors while they make the corrections.
You can use this function
set parameters validation message and Control ID as parameters
protected void PopupMessage(string Msg, Control controlID)
{
ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(controlID, controlID.GetType(), "msg", "alert('" + Msg + "');", true);
}
within the button click event you can this function according to your logic
protected void btnok_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if(TextBox1.Text=="")
PopupMessage("Name is Required", btnok);
}
please follow following code which is useful for me use ShowSummary property to reduce duplication of message into your pannel
<asp:ValidationSummary ID="VS1" ShowMessageBox="true" runat="server" ShowSummary="False" />
<asp:Label ID="lblUsername" runat="server" >User name</asp:Label>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtUserName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RFV1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtUserName" ErrorMessage="Please Select Name" Display="None" SetFocusOnError="True">
</asp:RequiredFieldValidator><br />

ValidationSummary shows all errors on one line

here is my code:
<asp:ValidationSummary ShowSummary="true" ID="ValidationSummary1" ValidationGroup="x" runat="server" />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ValidationGroup="x" ControlToValidate="ddlIso" ID="RequiredFieldValidator2" runat="server" Display="none" SetFocusOnError="true" ErrorMessage="<br>y is required"/>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ValidationGroup="x" ControlToValidate="txtIsoAct" ID="RequiredFieldValidator3" runat="server" Display="none" SetFocusOnError="true" ErrorMessage="<br>y Base Activity is required"/>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ValidationGroup="x" ControlToValidate="txtIsoDate" ID="RequiredFieldValidator4" runat="server" Display="none" SetFocusOnError="true" ErrorMessage="<br>y Base Activity Date is required"/>
Validation Summarys hows all three messages on one line... how can i get them to show up as bullets?
Use the DisplayMode property:
