Namespace: System.Web.UI.WebControls
Assembly: System.Web (in system.web.dll)

public:
virtual property bool Enabled {
	bool get () override;
	void set (bool value) override;
}
/** @property */
public boolean get_Enabled ()

/** @property */
public void set_Enabled (boolean value)

public override function get Enabled () : boolean

public override function set Enabled (value : boolean)

Property Value

true if the validation control is enabled; otherwise, false. The default is true.

Use the Enabled property to specify whether the validation control is enabled. You can disable the validation control by setting this property to false.

Setting either the Control.Visible or the Enabled property to false will prevent validation from being performed. This causes the IsValid property to always evaluate to true.

The Enabled property is slightly different from the Control.Visible property. If the Control.Visible property for a validation control is set to true, but the Enabled property is set to false, the validation control is still rendered for client-side validation, but in a disabled state. You can then re-enable the validation control on the client by using DHTML script.

The following code example demonstrates how to use the Enabled property to enable or disable the validation controls on the Web page.
