Property Value

true to perform validation when the user clicks a button in a CommandField field; otherwise, false. The default is true.

Use the CausesValidation property to specify whether validation is performed when a button in a CommandField field is clicked. When this property is set to true, by default all validation controls on the page are validated. To limit validation to only a certain group of validation controls, create a validation group and then set the ValidationGroup property to the validation group's name. For more information on validation groups, see BaseValidator.ValidationGroup.

The following code example demonstrates how to use the CausesValidation property to prevent validation from occurring when a button in a CommandField field is clicked.

Security noteSecurity Note:

This example has a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview (Visual Studio).
