Is there a way to validate several fields on a form with ONE validation control?

The scenario - 10 fields, at least one of them needs an entry before proceeding to the next page.
I need to check if all fields are null (empty, blank) and return an error message

I am planning to learn ASP.NET to broaden my .net skills. Is ASP.NET easy to learn? How long did it take to get a grasp on how to use it? Are there any tutorials or websites that will help me achieve my goal?

ASP.Net is tricky compared to windows apps. You need to learn HTML, JavaScript and CSS. The tricky part is making a nice user interface in a web page.

This is a good site. http://asp.net/learn/dataaccess/default.aspx?tabid=63

I suggest you learn the page life cycle. http://www.15seconds.com/issue/020102.htm

One more thing to learn is State management or how to get data from one page to another. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307598

Good Luck

When .NET first came out I found it much easier to get to grips with Windows apps. than ASP.NET apps. The latter was especially confusing having had some experience with classic ASP.

I am relatively new to Asp.Net. Here's my question:

I need to do a simple http POST to a service URL (at a different domain) with all the parameters in the query string. For security purposes the service URL is using http BASIC authentication under https.

I need to add an "Authorization" header with a Base64 encoded username and password to gain access to the service.

For the sake of illustration, assuming the login is: Abcdef and the password is aBC123abc -- what would the coding look like (in VB)? Where specifically would the coding be placed?

Thanks!

String auth = userID + ":" + password;
byte[] binaryData = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(auth);
auth = Convert.ToBase64String(binaryData); // Using base64 encoding

auth = "Basic " + auth; //This specifies it to use Basic Authentication

// Prepare web request

HttpWebRequest webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(myURL);

// Add the standard headers

webRequest.Method = "POST";

webRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

webRequest.ContentLength = 0;

// Add this additional header

webRequest.Headers[“AUTHORIZATION”] = auth;
HttpWebResponse webResponse = (HttpWebResponse)webRequest.GetResponse();

Thank you very much Felipe!

Ok - here come the "dumb" questions - sorry!

Where do I place this code?:

String auth = userID + ":" + password;
byte[] binaryData = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(auth);
auth = Convert.ToBase64String(binaryData); // Using base64 encoding

auth = "Basic " + auth; //This specifies it to use Basic Authentication

Does this go in the web.config file? If not where?

Same question for:

// Prepare web request

HttpWebRequest webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(myURL);

Where do I place this code?

And lastly are the standard (and additional) headers added in the document headers section of IIs in the virtual directory that contains the asp.net form page? If not where?

Thanks for your patience.

Client-side validation of All fields on form

Say I have 10 fields. Is there a way to check that all 10 fields are not null on the client? I am able to check on the server but would prefer to do client-side checking. The standard ASP.Net validation controls seem to be for only one field at a time.

Thank you.

Use a CustomValidator control and use the ClientValidationFunction to check all fields you are interested in.

Hello Mark,

I posted an updated question that may be clearer than my original question.

Here it is...

Is there a way to validate several fields on a form with ONE validation control?

The scenario - 10 fields, at least one of them needs an entry before proceeding to the next page.
I need to check if all fields are null (empty, blank) and return an error message

I just checked out the ClientValidationFunction but it seems(to me) that I can still only validate against one field at a time. Is that true or do you think I can use this function to validate against multiple fields with ONE validation control?

Thank you for your earlier response.
