We have 2 custom modules on a page, each module has one text box (with required field validators) and a button on click of which the validation should take place. Separate validation groups are assigned to the controls.

 

At runtime, if I click button of module 2, it shows validation error of module 1 as well. Similarly if I click button of module 1, it shows validation error of module 2 as well. Validation groups are not effective and works same as ASP.NET 1.1

 

Hi Nuke Newbie,

It looks like I'm a worst newbie than you. So instead of helping you out, I need to ask 1. what tool you used to create the modules and 2. how and where to insert the validation controls? Did you make use of the ASP.NET validation controls or did you use your own?

For the first question, you can use Microsoft's Visual development tools to create modules.  To see some of the processes involved, take a look at:
