How to disable/invisible the group validator in a web form?

hi All,
i have web form, it has two radio buttons and two panels, each panel will be made visible/invisible based on the radion button selection. there are a few RequiredValidators at the end of the form(not locate in panels). i grouped the validators based on panels.
my question is: how to disable/invisible the group validator based on the selection of the radio button OR based on the visiblity/invisibity of panels?

my code sample:
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="AddressLine1Validator" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Address Line 1 required" ValidationGroup="valIndivDelGroup" ControlToValidate="txtBox_IndivDelAddressLine1" Display="None"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
<asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="PostcodeValidator" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Postcode required" ValidationGroup="valIndivDelGroup" ControlToValidate="txtBox_IndivDelPostcode" Display="None"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

thanks a lot

Hi,

I asked exactly the same question a couple of days ago, you need to set the initial values of the controls to enabled false and have Javascript enable disable them:

There is a built-in function to do this:

var myVal = document.getElementById('<%=YOUR_VALIDATOR_ID_HERE.ClientID%>');
ValidatorEnable(myVal, false)

will disable the validator, true will enable it.

hi,
thanks. but i want to disable the group validators(in my code: i grouped the validators using ValidationGroup="valIndivDelGroup"). i am wondering how to make the group validator invisible/disable. in you code, the javascript is using to disable a specified validator not a group.

thanks
