RadMaskedTextBox

[Anil]

Good morning. I have a radMaskedTextBox in my .aspx page. And I am using javascript to populate it. The javascript is fine, it populates the radcontrol with a 10-digit phone number. The control also has a requiredfield validator. When I try to postback the requiredfield validator fails. Please tell me why it fails as I see the phone number in correct format in the control when javascript populates it. But if I type in the same number in the radmaskedtextbox  it passes without any error.
Thanks

Hi Anil,

I tried RadMaskedTextBox with RequiredFieldValidator and I found it is working fine in my end even when setting the value from client side. See the code that I tried.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadMaskedTextBox ID="RadMaskedTextBox1" runat="server" DisplayMask="##########" Mask="##########">
</telerik:RadMaskedTextBox>

<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="RadMaskedTextBox1"
    ErrorMessage="RequiredFieldValidator">
</asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

<input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" onclick="setValue();" />

JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
function setValue()
{
    var dateInput = $find("<%= RadMaskedTextBox1.ClientID %>");
    dateInput.set_value('1234567890');
}
</script>

Could you paste the code that you tried if it is different from that I tried?

Thanks,
Princy.

I had the same problem with phone numbers.  I decided to use a custom validator instead.  I have two RadMaskedTextBoxes one works fine with a RequiredFieldValidator and a RangeValidator.  The other one (also a phone number with the same mask) failed to validate with pre-built validators.  I ended up going with a custom validator.
