Example 1

The following example contains two forms in an .aspx file. The first form has a label with the text "Please enter a number from 1 through 100", an input box to input a number, a RangeValidator control that checks that the input value is a number from 1 through 100, a RequiredFieldValidator control that checks that the input field isn't empty, and a submit button. The second form is activated by the submit button on the first form, and displays a response. If one of the input value did not validate, the ValidationSummary control will display (in a list) the text in the ErrorMessage property for each control that did not validate:

<%@ Page 
Inherits="System.Web.UI.MobileControls.MobilePage"%>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="Mobile"
Namespace="System.Web.UI.MobileControls"
Assembly="System.Web.Mobile" %>

<script runat="server">
sub page2(Sender as Object,E as EventArgs)
  ActiveForm=f2
end sub
</script>

<Mobile:Form id="f1" runat="server">
  <Mobile:Label runat="server">
  Please enter a number from 1 through 100
  </Mobile:Label>

  <Mobile:TextBox id="txt1" runat="server"/>

  <Mobile:RangeValidator
  ControlToValidate="txt1"
  Type="Integer"
  MaximumValue="100"
  MinimumValue="1"
  ErrorMessage="Invalid number"
  runat="server" />

  <Mobile:RequiredFieldValidator
  ControlToValidate="txt1" 
  ErrorMessage="A number is required"
  runat="server" />

  <Mobile:Command runat="server"
  OnClick="page2">Show errors in Summary
  </Mobile:Command>
</Mobile:Form>

<Mobile:Form id="f2" runat="server">
  <Mobile:Label runat="server">
  Your input is valid if no error is shown below.
  </Mobile:Label>
  <Mobile:ValidationSummary FormToValidate="f1"
  HeaderText="Error listed below:"
  BackLabel="Back to main frame" runat="server" />
</Mobile:Form>
