Re: Validator not getting called and I can't see why [resolved]
OK, I got all this figured out in the end.
The validator was being called but because of problems with the page
attribute in the form the validator appears to have been receiving a
page value of zero and hence not validating the items on pages 1 or two
because neither 1 nor 2 are less that or equal to zero! When I did get
the validator to be called it still wasn't working right but I got that
fixed too.
Anyhow, I did up a blog post about it which can be found here:
http://www.bartbusschots.ie/blog/?p=262
If people thing an edited version of this would be a useful addition to
the Wiki work away, just credit me or link to the original blog post and
I'll be more than happy.
Cheers for your help guys,
Bart.

No, I don't use clientside validation on my forms. It's going to the
server anyhow so I don't see the point, just an extra layer for things
to not work in.
