Required field validator Submit issue

Question

I have a web form (say form 1) created for a small dine-in with a submit button. The fields to be validated are Name (textbox) gender(radio button) and so on. below this form on the same page is a feedback form (say form 2) having two fields: name(textbox) and feedback(text area). The feedback form has a submit button.

PROBLEM: When submit button of feedback form is clicked feedback is not submitted due to the required fields in form 1 are not filled in.

I want the feedback to be submitted. Please help.

Answer 1

Use ValidationGroup use this code

 <asp:TextBox ID="TxtAreaName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
     <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server"
          ControlToValidate="TxtAreaName" ErrorMessage="*" ValidationGroup="a"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

<asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" OnClick="btnSubmit_OnClick" Text="Submit" ValidationGroup="a" runat="server" />

Use same ValidationGroup for each form.
