Question

I have a textbox and I have set required validationcontrol on it on click of a button.

<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="name" Width="120"></asp:TextBox>
   <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rfvname" runat="server" ControlToValidate="name" ErrorMessage="Name is required" Display="Dynamic" />
   </td>

but the problem is when I am clicking on modify shared webpart and when I click on APPLY or OK button it is not saving as my form is empty . and I can’t put
CausesValidation="false" on that button as this button is by default in sharepoint.

Any idea how to resolve this…?

You can use the ValidationGroup property to group all the Validators and validation fields together.
