ignores first post back after validation

[Vandara Peou]

Hi,

I'm having a wierd problem with the Tab Strip control. I use .NET's client-side validation to validate the form before I allow the user to switch tabs. The problem is after validating and displaying the error message, the very next post back I do is ignored. It accepts post backs after that first attempt though, but it causes an "ohh didn't i just click that" question in your head. It's especially a problem with drop down lists set to auto postback that are supposed to make UI changes because the list item would change but the UI won't update therefore causing things to be out of sync.

The problem seems to happen only when I click on a tab strip. Because I also have a submit button on the bottom of the page that causes validation. After that button validates and displays an error message the next post back works without anyproblems.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Vandara Peou

Hi Vandara,

I think it will be best if you can open a support ticket and send us a simple running project (incl. CSS, images, skins, DB backup if needed and so on) demonstrating the problem (and step-by-step instructions on doing so). In that way we can reproduce and pinpoint the problems you're facing on our side, understand the logic of your application and provide a solution.

Thanks beforehand for your patience and cooperation,

Hi,

I'm facing the same issue with the RadTabStrip. Do you remember how did you resolve this issue ?

Hello Nishant,

Would you elaborate a bit more on the faced issue? What kind of validators do you use - RequeredFieldValidators or custom validators with ClientValidationFunction? In addition, if you could provide us with your current implementation it would be very helpful to assist you overcoming the faced issue.
