I am using Gridview and using Item Template text box. There are 5 text box and i am adding a new row dynamically on clicking on add row btn. in that row i have adding all text box which is empty. Now i want to validate that text box on btn click next.
now to do it?
I used required field validation its working for first time showing text box but when i am adding a new row text box its not causing the validation, I think there is some other way to give validation for dynamically added text box.
How could i validation my all dynamically added text box

You have used the validation group’s
ValidationGroup="a"on your Next button, but you have not used that on the Required Field Validator. But you have used it in the Email validator.You have to be consistent with the Validation control and whether to put validation on all controls and button controls for it to work.
