asp.net update panel and validators not working

Question

Hello,

I have created UserControl that contains a textbox and a restricted length validator for that textbox.

I'm adding user controls dynamically via UpdatePanel to my Parent WebForm. And the problem is that Validator just won't work. It just won't trigger.

I work on .net 3.5.

Does anyone have any clue what is happening and how can I make this validator work.

Answer 1

On the Client Click I have enable validator using javascript function

ValidatorEnable(document.getElementById('<%=rfv.ClientID%>'), true);
