I am using RequiredFieldValidator in my asp.net program. I have a sign out button which is used to terminate the session, but when i click on this sign out button without inserting any values in any of the text box the RequiredFieldValidator throws an error and i am not able to sign out.
I want to sign out a user without inputting any of the values in the textbox.
Please check my code in case of any problem in my code.

if (!IsPostBack)
{
String DB = "";
String AccountID = "";
if (Session["login"] != null && Session["db"] != null)
{
AccountID = Session["login"].ToString();
DB = Session["db"].ToString();
Label9.Text = AccountID;
}
else
{
Response.Redirect("log.aspx");
}
HiddenField1.Value = DB.ToString();
DropDown a = new DropDown();
a.filldropdown1(this.DropDownList1, DB);
}
}

// LOG OUT***********////////////
