Below is my design code for required field validator that checks whether user has entered value in 'textbox' if not it should display error message "name required". But my RFV is not prompting the error message on clicking button without entering name.But the star symbol i had assigned is popping up but not the message.

<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server"
ControlToValidate="TextBox1" ErrorMessage="Name Required" Font-Bold="True"
ForeColor="Black">*</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

0	I feel to popup the ErrorMessage, you will need to write a asp:ValidationSummary control. Read this tutorials on ValidationSummary - http://www.dotnetfunda.com/tutorials/controls/validationsummary.aspx. Hope this helps!

0	There is no such problem with * . The idea behind placing * is , placing our error message at our desired location using validation summary control. So add validation summary thats enough to resolve your issue.Follow the article given by sheo. Thanks... Thanks, Radha Srikanth Sina, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
