Question

I Have a repeater control and inside repeater control i have two linkbuttons (Show/Hide which will show and hide the panel) and also have a panel which contains textboxes (which takes first name and last name which are required fields). when i click on next button on my page validations are not triggered for the fields which are in hidden (panel). Appreciate any help

It sounds like you are hiding the panel on the server during a postback.

panel1.Visible = false;

If you hide the panel on the server, the markup for the textboxes never gets rendered, so the JQuery validation code will not see the textboxes.

Consider hiding/showing the panel using Jquery instead:

$("#panel1clientId").show(); or

$("#panel1clientId").hide();

This way the panel markup is rendered but hidden from the user.
