asp.net validator control issue

Question

I have a validator that check an input.
i what that the validator displayed "valid" if the value is valid, and "invalid" if the value is hasnt passed the validation.

can i manage this without adding an addional lable for the valid state(by setting the visibility: true/false)?

does the validator control has am alternative value, or i have to override it?

Answer 1

No, the validators are designed to render text if there was a validation error, and to be unobtrusive if not.

Of course, you could create a new Validator inheriting from BaseValidator that would do this.

There's an article giving a good overview of how to do this.
