validation on a text box inside a data grid

Hi all,

I added a text box in item data bound method of datagrid.Now what i want the user can only enter a number in that text box.whenever a chracter is entered i got a pop up error message You must enter a number.and secondly how to set background color of that text in code behined in item data bound.I am working in visual studio 2003

thanx

function

validateValue(obj)

{

if(isNaN(obj.value))

{

obj.value=

"";

obj.focus();

alert(

"Please enter numeric value.");returnfalse;

}

}

Put this in java script and install validation.js in ur solution explorer then it will run

to run this write Button1.Attribute.Add("onclick",

"return Validate('Spcification');"); in codebehin file

so that it will run fine

I would add a validation control to the row and set the control to validate in the Item_DataBind event handler. I think you would want to use the UniqueId, but I could be wrong on this.

86 ProtectedSub rptrBooks_ItemDataBound(ByVal senderAsObject, _

87 ByVal eAs System.Web.UI.WebControls.RepeaterItemEventArgs)Handles rptrBooks.ItemDataBound

91 Dim vMyValidatorAs RequiredFieldValidator = e.Item.FindControl("vMyValidator")

113 IfNot IsNothing(vMyValidator)Then

114 vMyValidator.ControlToValidate = txtTitle.UniqueID

115 EndIf

124

125 EndIf

126

127 EndSub
