Is there any way to assign a group of asp.net validations to validate when a button is clicked?

I’ve got two sections in my site. If one section isn’t submitted and the user decides to submit the other, I want to prevent the validation from the first section from firing also.

Any suggestions or pointers? Thanks

    Set the ValidationGroup on both your validators and button to be the same value to tie them together. In the example below, there are 2 buttons, each one validates one section or the other, but not both.

    <asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server" ... ValidationGroup="GroupOne" />
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server" ... ValidationGroup="GroupTwo" />
<asp:Button runat="server" ID="ButtonOne" ... CausesValidation="true" ValidationGroup="GroupOne" />
<asp:Button runat="server" ID="ButtonTwo" ... CausesValidation="true" ValidationGroup="GroupTwo" />
