Specifying Layout for In-Place Messages On ASP.NET Server Controls
Visual Studio .NET 2003
When an error message appears on the page, it becomes part of the layout of the page. You can specify that the layout be fixed — the error message does not change the page layout when it appears — or dynamic. For details about layout options, see Validation Error Message Layout for ASP.NET Server Controls.
To specify fixed or dynamic layout for client error messages
- Set the Display property of each validation control to a layout option defined by the ValidatorDisplay enumeration:
Option Description None Used when you are using only the summary control Static For a fixed layout Dynamic For a dynamic layout Note Internet Explorer 4.0 or later is necessary to view static layout.
