Hi,
     I have 2 text boxes and 3 drop down lists as mandatory fields. I am using javascript and asp .net validator for validation. When I click on the submit button all the 5 validator should work. But in my code only one validator is working.
My javascript code is:
var Page_IsValid = false;
Page_IsValid =Page_ClientValidate('valgrpCode');
Page_IsValid = Page_ClientValidate('valgrpDescription');
 Page_IsValid = Page_ClientValidate('valgrpCategory');
and my asp code is:
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="reqCode" runat="server" ErrorMessage="*" ControlToValidate="txtCode" ValidationGroup="valgrpCode" ForeColor="Red"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="reqDescription" runat="server" ErrorMessage="*" ControlToValidate="txtDescription" ValidationGroup="valgrpDescription" ForeColor="Red"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="reqCategory" runat="server" ErrorMessage="*" ControlToValidate="txtCategory" ValidationGroup="valgrpCategory" ForeColor="Red"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

and also here i am showing "*" as mandatory message.  But I need to change the color of label as mandatory message. I have added labels for each text boxes and drop down lists.

Hello,

You have to use only one validation group for each validation control.

ASP.NET

<asp:requiredfieldvalidator id="reqCode" runat="server" errormessage="*" controltovalidate="txtCode" validationgroup="valgrpCode" forecolor="Red" xmlns:asp="#unknown"></asp:requiredfieldvalidator>
<asp:requiredfieldvalidator id="reqDescription" runat="server" errormessage="*" controltovalidate="txtDescription" validationgroup="valgrpCode" forecolor="Red" xmlns:asp="#unknown"></asp:requiredfieldvalidator>
 
<asp:requiredfieldvalidator id="reqCategory" runat="server" errormessage="*" controltovalidate="txtCategory" validationgroup="valgrpCode" forecolor="Red" xmlns:asp="#unknown"></asp:requiredfieldvalidator>

Hi Sunasara,
I have 2 pages in my project, but I have placed mandatory fields in first page. So there is no issue. But if I have mandatory field in next page I can't see * , so the user think that there is some error. But if the * appears on clearing each mandatory fields there will not have any confusion.
