I recommend you to open the page in a browser and select the view source option , and please verify the "id" for the controls you are trying to implement the validator.

I guess it will be different,Use that id you see in page source ,in the jquery for validator to work.

I tried it sir but still its giving same error that ctl00_PageContent_AdminDetail_EditCompanyName Does not exist in current context . And in the code i pasted i used the UniqueId which used the EditCompanyId as the id so i dont think its a problem .

XML

$("#aspnetForm").validate({
                rules: {
                    <%=EditCompanyName.UniqueID %>: {
                       
                        required: true
                    }

Please see view source of the page to know the name of the control "EditCompanyName" as it will be different, as its a part of gridview
