I have following controls in my page, my CompareValidator works, but not the MaskedEditValidator. Am I missing anything?
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:ToolkitScriptManager ID="ToolkitScriptManager1" runat="server">
</asp:ToolkitScriptManager>
<div>
Date: <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:CalendarExtender ID="TextBox1_CalendarExtender" runat="server"
Enabled="True" TargetControlID="TextBox1">
</asp:CalendarExtender>
<asp:MaskedEditExtender ID="TextBox1_MaskedEditExtender" runat="server"
CultureAMPMPlaceholder="" CultureCurrencySymbolPlaceholder=""
CultureDateFormat="" CultureDatePlaceholder="" CultureDecimalPlaceholder=""
CultureThousandsPlaceholder="" CultureTimePlaceholder="" Enabled="True"
TargetControlID="TextBox1" Mask="99/99/9999" MaskType="Date">
</asp:MaskedEditExtender>
<%--<asp:MaskedEditValidator ID="MaskedEditValidator1" runat="server"
ControlExtender="TextBox1_MaskedEditExtender" ControlToValidate="TextBox1"
ErrorMessage="The Date is not valid!" IsValidEmpty="False">
</asp:MaskedEditValidator>--%>
<asp:CompareValidator ID="CompareValidator1" runat="server"
ErrorMessage="Invalid Date!" ControlToValidate="TextBox1"
Operator="DataTypeCheck" Type="Date">
</asp:CompareValidator>
<br />
<br />
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="PostBack"
onclick="Button1_Click" style="height: 26px; width: 85px" />
<br /><br />
Selected Date:<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server"></asp:Label>
</div>
</form>
Replace your MaskedEditValidator with the following:
<asp:MaskedEditValidator ID="MaskedEditValidator1" runat="server"
ControlExtender="TextBox1_MaskedEditExtender" ControlToValidate="TextBox1"
IsValidEmpty="False" EmptyValueMessage="Invalid Date"
InvalidValueMessage="The Date is not valid!">
</asp:MaskedEditValidator>
The key thing is that you needed InvalidValueMessage and/or EmptyValueMessage instead of ErrorText.
