How did validate textbox and dropdownlist using javascript.
Thanks

[iamrashida83]

suppose ur form id is frmMyForm, button is btnSubmit, textbox is txtMyTextBox and dropdownlist is ddlMyList
then use this in page_load

btnSubmit.Attributes.Add("OnClick", "return validate();");

and write javascript code in ur aspx page as:

<script language='javascript'>
function validate()
{
if(document.frmMyForm.txtMyTextBox.value=='')
{
alert('Missing Message');
document.frmMyForm.txtMyTextBox.focus();
return false;
}
else if(document.frmMyForm.ddlMyList.value=='-1')
{
alert('Missing Message');
document.frmMyForm.ddlMyList.focus();
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
</script>
