AJAX UpdatePanel and Validators - Framework Updated?

Hi Folks,

I bumped into the updatepanel/validator control issue yesterday and solved the problem by grabbing the updated validators project as per the pinned post at the top of this forum (http://forums.asp.net/t/1066821.aspx).

That said, in the post and in Scott Guthrie's blog there is mention of an official patch to ASP.NET 2.0 to fix this issue which would go out via windows update. Did this ever happen? My own dev box certainly doesn't seem to be fixed (hence having to use the compatibility validators downloaded from mattgi's site).

I think it has because I do not have the Validator issue and I am not using the Validator library anymore. But do not hold me to it, I may have just prayed real hard for effective validation. I also like the MaskedEditValidator control too, you should check it out.

I feel like a real shoe for using someone elses code and not understanding what it's doing...

I hope I can find time to view this guys source... :(

Wow, this actually did not fix my issue -- but I know I'm using validators in the an updatepanel an getting the same issue. Grrr...

Hello.

if i'm not mistaken, you'll only get compatible validators on the 3.5 framework since the validators of 2.0 were never updated to be compatible with the updatepanel.

Ajax Timer & Validators

Hello Everybody,

I have this problem: One page with lots of ASP.NET validation controls and tried to add one AJAX timer that must tick every 20 seconds. My update panel is really simple now, just the timer and a label to show the timer... the problem is that the timer just tick once. I know is due to validation controls 'cause I create a simple test page with just one textbox and a range validator and of course my timer, and after the first tick, it doesn't tick again. I already add this code in the Web.Config for Validators:

<tagMapping>

<addtagType="System.Web.UI.WebControls.CompareValidator"mappedTagType="Sample.Web.UI.Compatibility.CompareValidator, Validators, Version=1.0.0.0"/>

<addtagType="System.Web.UI.WebControls.CustomValidator"mappedTagType="Sample.Web.UI.Compatibility.CustomValidator, Validators, Version=1.0.0.0"/>

<addtagType="System.Web.UI.WebControls.RangeValidator"mappedTagType="Sample.Web.UI.Compatibility.RangeValidator, Validators, Version=1.0.0.0"/>

<addtagType="System.Web.UI.WebControls.RegularExpressionValidator"mappedTagType="Sample.Web.UI.Compatibility.RegularExpressionValidator, Validators, Version=1.0.0.0"/>

<addtagType="System.Web.UI.WebControls.RequiredFieldValidator"mappedTagType="Sample.Web.UI.Compatibility.RequiredFieldValidator, Validators, Version=1.0.0.0"/>

<addtagType="System.Web.UI.WebControls.ValidationSummary"mappedTagType="Sample.Web.UI.Compatibility.ValidationSummary, Validators, Version=1.0.0.0"/>

</tagMapping>

and I added too the Validators.dll... So anyone has an idea of what is missing?

Thanks,

Alejandra

Ok, I solved this problem. I just had to add an "EnableClientValidation = false" to every single validator and it worked, now the timer ticks every 20 seconds... the problem is that I still need to do a couple of Client Validations... hmmm.. I think I would need to do a workaround for this. Any suggestions?

Thanks
