BaseValidator.Display Property
Assembly: System.Web (in system.web.dll)
[ThemeableAttribute(false)] public: property ValidatorDisplay Display { ValidatorDisplay get (); void set (ValidatorDisplay value); }
/** @property */ public ValidatorDisplay get_Display () /** @property */ public void set_Display (ValidatorDisplay value)
public function get Display () : ValidatorDisplay public function set Display (value : ValidatorDisplay)
Property Value
One of the ValidatorDisplay values. The default value is Static.Use the Display property to specify the display behavior of the error message in the validation control. The following table lists the different values that can be used.
| Display behavior | Description |
|---|---|
| None | The validation message is never displayed inline. |
| Static | Space for the validation message is allocated in the page layout. |
| Dynamic | Space for the validation message is dynamically added to the page if validation fails. |
Note |
|---|
| The display behavior depends on whether client-side validation is performed. If client-side validation is not active (because the browser does not support it or because it has been disabled by using the Page.ClientTarget page directive or EnableClientScript property), ValidatorDisplay.Static and ValidatorDisplay.Dynamic behave the same way: the error message takes up space only if it is displayed. The ability to dynamically allocate space for the message when it is not being displayed (ValidatorDisplay.Static) only works with client-side validation. |
This property cannot be set by themes or style sheet themes. For more information, see ThemeableAttribute and ASP.NET Themes and Skins Overview.
