Introduction to the ValidationSummary Control
.NET Framework 3.0
Use the ValidationSummary control to present the user with a list of validation errors that occurred when a form was posted to the server. The ValidationSummary also displays a back link (whose text you can customize by setting the BackLabel property) for the user to return to the form and correct the data entry.
When you add a ValidationSummary control to a container control or template, the following occurs:
-
The control displays two sample error messages. Actual error messages will be provided by the other validation controls in the form.
-
The control's StyleReference property is set to "error", which is the name of a predefined style in the default StyleSheet.
