sentinel -> Form Validation (3/21/2007 8:19:44)

How do we validate form fields without saving a page as .ASPX

Normally we validate our pages with FP 2003 buit-in validator. What is the equivalent in expressions?


Thanks

Rich

Errr what do you mean by validate? Check they comply or check the field content validations? If it's the former then Tools > Accessibility Reports and Compatibility Reports and CSS Reports

jaybee...

I mean to make sure a user does not leave the form field empty or only uses numeral. That type of validation.

Frontpage had it built-in but I can not seem to find it in expression.

Ahh OK, validate the form fields. I have to amit I never use MS forms as FP forms were so insecure so I haven't tested out the EW versions, however, it seems it's all done by asp.net.

If you type 'validate form fields' into the EW help box it all comes back ASP.net.

It's very easy once you have your aspx form created you can drag and drop a whole assortment of validation controls onto the page. You assign the form field they are to validate.

Thanks for the information. Unfortunately I dont think I can run .NET on our server with the Spooky login system. I'll have to double check with Spooky on that one.

Not to mention the people that are building these forms aren't uploading them to a microsoft server. They are running Redhat and have been used to using frontpage form validation as a quick way to handle validation.

I think you can still use the bot validation like you did in FP as long as your running the FP extension on the server.
