hi,
just write the function for validatin the control in javascript..
if u r using clas in java script write the code like this
functionName: function()
{
$get(clientID+txtSdate).value=""
.
.
}
you can check the value by using a if condition.
u can replace $get by document.getElementById()..and you shud write the client Id +control id for finding the control..you can also get the dropdown value by coding like this..
