Use Validation Controls, it'll fulfill most of your conditions.
For others, use Javascript.

You can use Regular Expression Validator to validate a phone number.

which property in regular expressions is used so that control only takes alphabets or integers?..

If you want to validate for only alphabets or integers, don't use Validator.
Design regular expressions for your need and use it.

Mandatory fields: use required field validator.
Length: Use maximum length property of text box.
For regular expressions Check here[]

And how are hidden fields used to store an error message which is displayed only when user does'nt work according to the validations(error messages are to be displayed)?...
