advancing to button code-behind when validation fails… how to solve it without Page.IsValid?
Question
I have an ASP .NET page with both asp .net validators and some javascript checking too. I am advancing into the button code behind:
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Page.IsValid)
{
/// ...
Even when the validation fails! The Page.IsValid check solves it, but it also resets all the JavaScript variables… May there be a way not to advance into the button code? I have an ajax update panel and some image buttons on the page too… Anything I may look out for? Thanks in advance!
Here is my aspx:
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true"
CodeBehind="WebForm2.aspx.cs"
Inherits="WebForm2" %>

alert(nrOptions + " - variable initialized");
function IncrementQuantity() {
nrOptions++;
alert(nrOptions);
}
function DecrementQuantity() {
nrOptions--;
alert(nrOptions);
}
function MoreThanTwo() {
alert(nrOptions);
if (nrOptions > 1) {
alert('okay - you have: ' + nrOptions);
return true;
}
else {
alert('error - must have at least two options, you only have: ' + nrOptions);
return false;
}
}
</script>

</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="right">
<asp:Button ID="lnkAddRow" runat="server" Text="Add option" OnClientClick="IncrementQuantity();"

</asp:Repeater>
<br />
<p style="text-align: right;">

ValidationGroup="InsertVal" />
</p>
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
And my code-behind:
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Web; using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; using System.Data;
public partial class WebForm2 : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!this.IsPostBack)
{
DTable = EmptyDTOptions();
Repeater1.DataSource = DTable;
Repeater1.DataBind();
}
}
protected void Repeater1_ItemCommand(object source, RepeaterCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "AddRow")
{
DTable.Rows.Add(0, "", "");
Repeater1.DataSource = DTable;
Repeater1.DataBind();
return;
}
if (e.CommandName == "DeleteRow")
{
int idx = e.Item.ItemIndex;
DTable.Rows.RemoveAt(idx);
Repeater1.DataSource = DTable;
Repeater1.DataBind();
return;
}
}
protected void lnkAddRow_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (RepeaterItem item in Repeater1.Items)
{
int idx = item.ItemIndex;
TextBox tb1 = (TextBox)item.FindControl("TBox1");
TextBox tb2 = (TextBox)item.FindControl("TBox2");
DTable.Rows[idx]["Desc"] = tb1.Text;
DTable.Rows[idx]["Pont"] = tb2.Text;
}
}
protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Page.IsValid)
{
// save!
}
}
private DataTable DTable
{
get
{
DataTable _dt = (DataTable)Session["DTable"];
if (Object.Equals(_dt, null))
{
_dt = EmptyDTOptions();
Session.Add("DTable", _dt);
}
return _dt;
}
set
{
Session["DTable"] = value;
}
}
DataTable EmptyDTOptions()
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
DataColumn dc;
dc = new DataColumn("OptionNr", System.Type.GetType("System.Int32"));
dt.Columns.Add(dc);
dc = new DataColumn("Desc");
dt.Columns.Add(dc);
dc = new DataColumn("Pont");
dt.Columns.Add(dc);
return dt;
}
}
I think it shows what I'm trying to avoid... Advancing to the button2_click with the failed validation (and resetting the javascript variable)... In order to get a list of two or more pairs of items, one of them being a number.

Rather than calling your function from the OnClientClick on the button, you can add a CustomValidator that calls your JavaScript function.
<asp:CustomValidator ID="CheckMoreThanTwo" runat="server"
ValidationGroup="InsertVal"
ClientValidationFunction="MoreThanTwo" />
Then, modify your JavaScript function as follows:
function MoreThanTwo(source, arguments) {
alert(nrOptions);
if (nrOptions > 1) {
alert('okay - you have: ' + nrOptions);
arguments.IsValid=true;
} else {
alert('error - must have at least two options, you only have: '
+ nrOptions);
arguments.IsValid=false;
}
}
Doing this allows your custom JavaScript validation to work with all the validation code that ASP.NET uses. For instance, if you change to a validation summary, or change validation groups, this custom validator will continue to work the way the rest of the validators work.
