Validation error 1

[mrathi]

Hi, Thanks for all the responses in advance.

I have created a textbox in an aspx page. I have put a range validator on the textbox, ex it can accept only 0 to 100. Then I put in 101 in the textbox and click a button, it gives me the error. So I change the value to 99 or any other valid value. It still gives me the same error when i click the button. Does the previous value gets stored somewhere and the error continues?

Please help.

Thanks

Answer: No. It sounds like there's something else at play here.

Could you verify that you don't possibly have 2 validators (one overlapping the other).

You're probably right Mike555 although I would hazard a guess that it's the Type property that is the problem rather than another control.

mrathi,

Make sure that the Type property of the validator control is set to Integer (I would guess that you currently have it set as the default of "String").

Hi thanks for the replies.

Mike when you say overlapping validators, what do you mean? I have two validators for the textbox, one making sure that it is not empty and one checking the range of the input value.

ca8msm, I think you were right. I had to change the Type property to integer rather than string, and it took care of my problem.

Thanks you guys.

Sometimes when I'm working with several validators on one page I simply copy/paste validators and then change the ControlToValidate propery. Sometimes I copy/paste one to many times and end up with 2 validators at the same location. That's all I was checking for...
