What are the different types of validation in ASP.NET forms?

In ASP.NET, there are several types of validation you can use for forms, including:

1. Required Field Validator: Ensures that a field is not left empty.
2. Range Validator: Validates that the input falls within a specified range.
3. Regular Expression Validator: Uses regex to validate the format of the input.
4. Compare Validator: Compares the value of one input to another.
5. Custom Validator: Allows for custom validation logic.

Can you explain how to implement a Required Field Validator?

Sure! To implement a Required Field Validator in ASP.NET, you can use the following steps:

1. Drag and drop a TextBox control onto your form.
2. Drag and drop a RequiredFieldValidator control next to the TextBox.
3. Set the ControlToValidate property of the validator to the ID of the TextBox.
4. Set the ErrorMessage property to the message you want to display if validation fails.
5. Ensure that the Display property is set to Dynamic or Static to show the error message.

What happens if the validation fails?

If the validation fails, the Required Field Validator will display the error message you specified, and the form will not be submitted until the user corrects the input.
