ClientScriptManager..

can someone give me example how to use that clientscriptmanager.registerforeventvalidation, because I get this error , but i dont want to set enableeventvalidation to false for security reason.. but I dont know how to use that to eventvalidation either, I need an example..

Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using <pages enableEventValidation="true"/> in configuration or <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page. For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them. If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order to register the postback or callback data for validation.

When do you get this error? Try disabling event validation in the page/web.config by setting it to false and see if it solves your problem but this is not recommended for security purpose

yeah I dont want that at all, the other option is always use the ClientScriptManager .. but I dont know how to use that in my code, I need to example cannot find it, I probably will need to use that on my button click,...

sunithnair

What else are you dping on your page? Are you modifying any data using javasscript?

I use RadAjaxPanel
that's it and validations such as requiredfiled validatior. have dropdowns and textboxes

sunithnair

protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer)
{
Page.ClientScript.RegisterForEventValidation(DropDownList1.UniqueID);
Page.ClientScript.RegisterForEventValidation(DropDownList2.UniqueID);
Page.ClientScript.RegisterForEventValidation(ListBox1.UniqueID);
base.Render(writer);
}

Open in new window

should I put that on the button click event? or seperate code?because error happens on the button click event

sunithnair

just put it as a seperate function. The error happens in button click event because the postback happens when you click the button.

I did put that in seperate one but I only did it for the dropdowns, do I need that for the textboxes too? because dropdown's didnt work...

also just notice I have a javascript actually running on that page, for the pop up window...maybe that is causing..?

ASKER

that didnt work either

sunithnair

You need to do it for all the server controls and also if you are trying to modify any text using javascript try disabling the viewstate for that control.

i put that for the all the server controls and didnt work, what about the javascript of the linkbutton I have ihyperlink and imagebutton but those not happening anything on the postback, do I need to still add them to server control and disable viewstate? if yes, how to do that disabling?

sunithnair

i dont think you need to add them but you can try if that works or not. disabling viewstate is settng the attribute (enableviewstate) of the server controls to false

<asp:TextBox ID="txtTest" runat="false" enableviewstate="false" />
