I have a ASP.Net gridview and in itemTemplete I have textbox for input purpose. The problem is some textbox is for numeric input and other for Character and some accept Mobile no and 1 row is for IP address.
Now i want to validate rows as per Row in gridview?
is it possible if possible then how ?
here im giving an example.Not an exact answer.So try to understand the logic.Here im giving how to validate phno and only alphabets in name.remaining you can get, like the same way.
Because of dynamic generation of textboxes we cant create validations on it.So i use "javascript"
First you need to click "View Page source"(Right click on browser page).In that we can see the "Id"s of dynamically generated textboxes.here i take two textboxes for phno and name in gridview.i get their ids by seeing their html.(Right click on browser->view page source).i get their ids like "GridView1_TextBox1_0" for name"GridView1_TextBox1_1" for phone.By using ids i create validation using Javascript.Write the below code in Head Section of Page.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.4/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function validate() {
var phno = document.getElementById("GridView1_TextBox1_1").value;
var namechar = document.getElementById("GridView1_TextBox1_0").value;
var phoneno = /^\d{10}$/;
var name = /^[a-zA-Z]+$/;
if (!namechar.match(name)) {
alert("please enter alphabets only");
return false;
}
if(!phno.match(phoneno))
{
alert("please enter valid phno");
return false;
}
}
</script>
In this way i validate textboxes which are generated dynamically.once again its not exact answer.its a logic by using javascript.
Limitation:
Hence Javascript is client side technology.if user disable the javascript.it not works.

I have two TextBoxes, and I want to prevent the user from editing one of it while the other is not empty in real time. How could I do that ?
You can add a text changed event on the textbox that needs a input firts. Then in you C# side you can do a check in that event to see:
If(string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtbox.Text))
{
txtbox2.Enabled = false
}
else
{
txtbox2.Enabled = true;
}
Hope that helps
The interaction you're describing is on the client, not the server, so you'll need to write some javascript to make that happen.
Add this to the bottom of your aspx page. Depending on the id schema you're solution is using, you may need to inspect the Id's of the textareas in your browser to get their actual DOM element Id's. (note - haven't tested the code, but you get the idea)
<script>
var elDisabledTxtBx = document.getElementById("Your_Disabled_Textbox_ID");
var elTxtbxThatAcceptsInput = document.getElementById("ID_of_textbox_user_types_into");
$(elTxtbxThatAcceptsInput).on("keyup", function(el, $e){
if ( this.value.trim() === "" ){
elDisabledTxtBx.disabled = false;
}
});
</script>
I have a gridView with search and filtering options, it is listing document from SharePoint Library, when i click on the Document name i added a Modal popup to display Documents properties page, if i update Document's title for example and select save, the item is updated but the gridview is still showing the old title, i need to press Search again in order to refresh the values.
the code i use for model popup is:
<script type="text/javascript">
function openModal(url) {
var options = SP.UI.$create_DialogOptions();
options.url = url;
options.dialogReturnValueCallback = Function.createDelegate(null, CloseCallback);
SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog(options);
}
// Dialog callback
function CloseCallback(result, target) {
if (result === SP.UI.DialogResult.OK) {
SP.UI.ModalDialog.RefreshPage(SP.UI.DialogResult.OK);
}
}
</script>
what should i do to refresh and bid gridview data when the popup is closed?
on the click of save button, make a serverside call to rebind the gridview. i.e
$(document).ready(function(){
$('id_of_save_button').click(function(){
//ajax call of serverside method to rebind the grid.
});
});
However with asp.net these things become little easy if you use modalPopupExtender that ships with asp.net
Hi for handling sharepoint save event using javascript u can use this function
function PreSaveAction()
{
// write your gride view data bind code
}
I have this code for Form Submit..
<input type="submit" runat="server" id="buttonSubmit" value="Add" style="width:100px;" />
My BeginForm is like this..
<% using (Html.BeginForm("Insert", "StudentController", FormMethod.Post, new { #id = "exc-" }))
{%>
I have one textbox in my view I need to check my textbox is empty or not if it is Empty display alert box saying please Enter some value in textbox
other wise go to controler..
Please any body help me out?
thanks
You can do this many ways, but possibly the cleanest is to use Data Annotations on your ViewModel. For example -
public class MyViewModel
{
[Required]
public string MyProperty { get; set; }
}
Now in your View use
<% Html.EnableClientValidation(); %>
just before you start the form. This will cause a JavaScript object to be emitted in the markup sent to the client. The script looks like this example
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
if (!window.mvcClientValidationMetadata) { window.mvcClientValidationMetadata = []; }
window.mvcClientValidationMetadata.push({"Fields":[{"FieldName":"FirstName","ReplaceValidationMessageContents":true,"ValidationMessageId":"FirstName_validationMessage","ValidationRules":[{"ErrorMessage":"The First Name field is required.","ValidationParameters":{},"ValidationType":"required"}]},{"FieldName":"LastName","ReplaceValidationMessageContents":false,"ValidationMessageId":"LastName_validationMessage","ValidationRules":[{"ErrorMessage":"The Last Name field is required.","ValidationParameters":{},"ValidationType":"required"}]},{"FieldName":"EmailAddress","ReplaceValidationMessageContents":false,"ValidationMessageId":"EmailAddress_validationMessage","ValidationRules":[{"ErrorMessage":"The Email Address field is required.","ValidationParameters":{},"ValidationType":"required"}]},{"FieldName":"ZipCode","ReplaceValidationMessageContents":false,"ValidationMessageId":"ZipCode_validationMessage","ValidationRules":[{"ErrorMessage":"Zip Code must be 5 character long.","ValidationParameters":{"minimumLength":0,"maximumLength":5},"ValidationType":"stringLength"},{"ErrorMessage":"Zip Code must be five digits.","ValidationParameters":{"pattern":"\\d{5}"},"ValidationType":"regularExpression"},{"ErrorMessage":"The Zip Code field is required.","ValidationParameters":{},"ValidationType":"required"}]}],"FormId":"form0","ReplaceValidationSummary":false,"ValidationSummaryId":"valSumId"});
//]]>
</script>
This object contains validation metadata that can be used by a client side validation plugin to hook up validation on the client side. The plugin that comes with ASP.NET MVC 2 is the Microsoft AJAX validator and you will need to include these scripts in the page to use the validation (MicrosoftAjax.js, MicrosoftMVCAjax.js and MicrosoftMvcValidation.js in that order).
Alternatively, if you're more comfortable with jQuery, you can get a script in the MvcFutures source that hooks the validation into the jQuery validate plugin (this isn't a fully fledged script and is missing a few pieces, such as getting client side validation summaries). The script is MicrosoftMvcJQueryValidation.js and you can get it here
The advantage of using Data Annotations is that you get the server side validation too and your client and server side validation will validate for the expected values. Also, the Data Annotations allow you to set Error Messages and names for the field labels from the attributes (error messages and display names* can also come from resource files)
*Because MVC2 was compiled against .NET 3.5 version of Data Annotations, display name cannot be set from resource files. There is a workaround to this - DisplayName attribute from Resources?.
NOW THE EASY WAY
Just set up a submit event handler on the form
var form = document.getElementById('exc-');
var oldSubmit = form.onsubmit || function() {};
form.onsubmit = function() {
var input = document.getElementById('myinput');
if (input.value === '') {
alert('please Enter some value in textbox');
return false;
}
oldSubmit();
}
or with jQuery
$('#exc-').submit(function() {
if ($('#myinput').val() === '') {
alert('please Enter some value in textbox');
return false;
}
});
I have a partial view that is rendered within a main view. The partial view takes advantage of System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations and Html.EnableClientValidation().
A link is clicked, and div containing the partial view is displayed within a JQuery.Dialog().
I then click the save button without entering any text in my validated input field. This causes the client side validation to fire as expected, and display the '*required' message beside the invalid field.
When the cancel button is clicked, I want to reset the client side MVC validation back to it's default state and remove any messages, ready for when the user opens the dialog again. Is there a recommended way of doing this?
This answer is for MVC3. See comments below for help updating it to MVC 4 and 5
If you just want to clear the validation-messages so that they are not shown to the user you can do it with javascript like so:
function resetValidation() {
//Removes validation from input-fields
$('.input-validation-error').addClass('input-validation-valid');
$('.input-validation-error').removeClass('input-validation-error');
//Removes validation message after input-fields
$('.field-validation-error').addClass('field-validation-valid');
$('.field-validation-error').removeClass('field-validation-error');
//Removes validation summary
$('.validation-summary-errors').addClass('validation-summary-valid');
$('.validation-summary-errors').removeClass('validation-summary-errors');
}
If you need the reset to only work in your popup you can do it like this:
function resetValidation() {
//Removes validation from input-fields
$('#POPUPID .input-validation-error').addClass('input-validation-valid');
$('#POPUPID .input-validation-error').removeClass('input-validation-error');
//Removes validation message after input-fields
$('#POPUPID .field-validation-error').addClass('field-validation-valid');
$('#POPUPID .field-validation-error').removeClass('field-validation-error');
//Removes validation summary
$('#POPUPID .validation-summary-errors').addClass('validation-summary-valid');
$('#POPUPID .validation-summary-errors').removeClass('validation-summary-errors');
}
I hope this is the effect you seek.
If you are using unobtrusive validation that comes with MVC you can simply do:
$.fn.clearErrors = function () {
$(this).each(function() {
$(this).find(".field-validation-error").empty();
$(this).trigger('reset.unobtrusiveValidation');
});
};
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third Party Edit:
This mostly worked in my case, but I had to remove the $(this).find(".field-validation-error").empty(); line. This appeared to affect the re-showing of the validation messages when resubmitting.
I used the following:
$.fn.clearErrors = function () {
$(this).each(function() {
$(this).trigger('reset.unobtrusiveValidation');
});
};
and then called it like this:
$('#MyFormId input').clearErrors();
function resetValidation() {
$('.field-validation-error').html("");
}
You can simply define a new function in jQuery:
$.fn.resetValidation = function () {
$(this).each(function (i, e) {
$(e).trigger('reset.unobtrusiveValidation');
if ($(e).next().is('span')) {
$(e).next().empty();
}
});
};
and then use it for your input fields:
$('#formId input').resetValidation();
Thank you. I had a similar question for a slightly different scenario. I have a screen where when you click one of the submit buttons it downloads a file. In MVC when you return a file for download, it doesn't switch screens, so any error messages which were already there in the validation summary remain there forever. I certainly don't want the error messages to stay there after the form has been submitted again. But I also don't want to clear the field-level validations which are caught on the client-side when the submit button is clicked. Also, some of my views have more than one form on them.
I added the following code (thanks to you) at the bottom of the Site.Master page so it applies to all of my views.
<!-- This script removes just the summary errors when a submit button is pressed
for any form whose id begins with 'form' -->
<script type="text/javascript">
$('[id^=form]').submit(function resetValidation() {
//Removes validation summary
$('.validation-summary-errors').addClass('validation-summary-valid');
$('.validation-summary-errors').removeClass('validation-summary-errors');
});
</script>
Thanks again.
You can tap into the validation library methods to do this.
There are two objects of interest: FormContext and FieldContext. You can access the FormContext via the form's __MVC_FormValidation property, and one FieldContext per validated property via the FormContext's fields property.
So, to clear the validation errors, you can do something like this to a form:
var fieldContexts = form.__MVC_FormValidation.fields;
for(i = 0; i < fieldContexts.length; i++) {
var fieldContext = fieldContexts[i];
// Clears validation message
fieldContext.clearErrors();
}
// Clears validation summary
form.__MVC_FormValidation.clearErrors();
Then, you can hook that piece of code to whichever event you need.
Sources for this (quite undocumented) insight:
http://bradwilson.typepad.com/presentations/advanced-asp-net-mvc-2.pdf (Mentions FieldContext)
https://stackoverflow.com/a/3868490/525499 (For pointing out this link, which metions how to trigger client-side validation via javascript)
In order to complete clear the validation artifacts including the message, the coloured background of the input field, and the coloured outline around the input field, I needed to use the following code, where this was (in my case) a Bootstrap modal dialog containing an imbedded form.
$(this).each(function () {
$(this).find(".field-validation-error").empty();
$(this).find(".input-validation-error").removeClass("input-validation-error");
$(this).find(".state-error").removeClass("state-error");
$(this).find(".state-success").removeClass("state-success");
$(this).trigger('reset.unobtrusiveValidation');
});
Here you can use simply remove error message
$('.field-validation-valid span').html('')
OR
$('.field-validation-valid span').text('')
I've this issue for "Validation summery" after form ajax submit and done it like this:
$form.find('.validation-summary-errors ul').html('');
and complete code is:
$("#SubmitAjax").on('click', function (evt) {
evt.preventDefault();
var $form = $(this).closest('form');
if ($form.valid()) {
//Do ajax call . . .
//Clear validation summery
$form.find('.validation-summary-errors ul').html('');
}
});
I have a C# ASP.NET web page with an xml file upload form. When the user clicks 'upload', a javascript confirm alert will pop up asking the user, "is this file correct?". The confirm alert will only activate if the file name does not contain a value from one of the other form fields.
What is the best way to combine the use of a C# ASP.NET form and a javascript confirm alert that is activated if the name of a file being uploaded does not meet certain criteria?
There's not much you need to do with C# for this page, it sounds like most of this will be done on the client side.
Add the fileupload control and a button to your .aspx form. Set the Button's OnClientClick property to something like
OnClientClick = "return myFunction()"
and then write a javascript function like:
function myFunction()
{
// Check other text values here
if (needToConfirm){
return confirm('Are you sure you want to upload?');
}
else return true;
}
Make sure "myFunction()" returns false if you wish to cancel the postback (i.e. the user clicked "no" in the confirm dialog). This will cancel the postback if they click "No".
I suppose you are putting value of valid string in a hidden field (you haven't mentioned). Implement OnClientClick for Upload button:
<asp:button .... OnClientClick="return confirmFileName();"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
function confirmFileName()
{
var f = $("#<%= file1.ClientID %>").val();
var s=$("#<%= hidden1.ClientID %>").attr("value");
if (f.indexOf(s) == -1) {
if (!confirm("Is this correct file?")) {
$("#<%=file1.ClientID %>").focus();
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
</script>
EDIT:- Regarding <%= file1.ClientID %>.
This will be replaced by the client side ID of the file upload control like ctl00$ctl00$cphContentPanel$file1. It puts the script on steroids with respect to using something like $("input[id$='file1']"). For more information please see Dave Wards' post.
window.onload = function() {
document.forms[0].onsubmit = function() {
var el = document.getElementById("FileUpload1");
var fileName = el.value;
if(fileName.indexOf("WHATEVER_VALUE") == -1) {
if(!confirm("Is the file correct?")) {
el.focus();
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
}
I had problems implementing this kind of thing to work in both IE and FireFox because of the way events work in those browsers. When I got it to work in one of them, the other would still cause a postback even if I cancelled out.
Here's what we have in our code (the browser test was stolen from elsewhere).
if (!window.confirm("Are you sure?"))
{
if (/MSIE (\d+\.\d+);/.test(navigator.userAgent))
window.event.returnValue = false;
else
e.preventDefault();
}
In addition to using client side validation, you should also add a CustomValidator to provide validation on the server side. You cannot trust that the user has Javascript turned on, or that the user has not bypassed your Javascript checks.
