CompareValidator Problem
I'm sure this is a simple mistake but I have a CompareValidator that appears to be comparing the values within the text boxes as String vs Integers. When I enter 3 in the txtCapacity and 15 in txtMaxCapacity the validation is triggered as an error. What am I doing wrong. Thanks!

I have tried mixing it up every which way. It will validate as expected if I enter txtCapacity=4 and txtMaxCapacity=5 but if I enter txtCapacity=4 and txtMaxCapacity=12 then it triggers it as txtMaxCapacity is less than txtCapacity. I have even tried setting up a custom validator but I get the same results. Am I inadvertently assigning the field as text and not realizing it???

The problem was caused by 2 validation tags and one was correct and the other incorrect. Once I removed the incorrect one everything fired correctly
