                        Display="Dynamic" ClientValidationFunction="ValidateEditText"></asp:CustomValidator>

Hi Kannan,

The custom validator control is designed for validating with a custom client-side logic. For example, in the mentioned demo the function checkLength() performs the check whether the length of the content is less than 50 characters. You can examine this MSDN article about the CustomValidator control for more information.

If the case is that you need the editor to be only a required field you could use the RequiredFieldValidator control instead of the above mentioned control. The following code sample shows this approach:

<telerik:RadEditor ID="CorrespondenceAlertEditor" runat="server" _OnClientLoad="OnClientLoad"
    ContentFilters="None" EnableResize="false"
    Width="99%">
</telerik:RadEditor>

<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="CorrespondenceValidator" runat="server" Text="◄ Required"
    ControlToValidate="CorrespondenceAlertEditor" Display="Dynamic"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

Which is the version of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX that you are currently using?

If you are still having difficulties, please send step by step instructions for reproducing the problem in the linked demo so that I can inspect it locally. You can use a video for this purpose.

Hi Ianko ,

Thanks for your reply. I knew that we have to use Required field validator My problem is


After clicking submit button only it shows Required .
but other controls when click any of page it self it showing required . hope you clear about my problem .

I'm using Telerik.Web.UI namespace hope it is 2008 version .

Check your example in Telerik website
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/editor/examples/validators/defaultcs.aspx#qsf-demo-source

there we click any where its Required  after typing data it gone thats good but Rad editor not behave like that ( I think on change event )

Thanks,
Kannan.

Hi Kannan,

The described functionality is not a part of the RadEditor control's implementation, because the editor is a textbox in an iframe and could not modify the show/hide functionality of the validator control. The RadTextBox control exists in the same document where the validator is, this is why the event handler responsible for listening the content can modify the validator's visibility.

Nevertheless, you could implement a custom Client-side functionality attached to the OnClientSelectionChange event of the editor, in which the logic will check if it is typed in the content and show or hide the validator's message.
