Strange issue with asp:ValidationSummary

Question

I have a custom user control that contains asp:ValidationSummary. It is placed on a page along with other controls that display data. When I try to save the page and the validation fires, I get the following, strange behavior: If I mouse over any controls on the page, all labels turn to red color, when the cursor leaves page, they return to the color specified in their css. I did not find any code for mouseover, etc... I wonder if the ValidationSummary is doing something that I am not aware of? I appreciate any feedback.

Thanks.

Answer 1

To test this theory, change the color of the validation summary to blue and try it again. If your controls turn blue, then yes I would say it's your validation summary.

Since the validation summary is client side, I wouldn't recommend putting it in a custom control unless you have a very explicit reason to.

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I'm seeing the same thing.
