CustomValidator not working in FormView

[J. Cairn]

I have tried everything and can't get the validation code to fire.
Code is below. I have simplified some of it to test it.


Here is the CustomValidator (it is in the InsertItemTemplate of my
FormView):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<asp:CustomValidator ID="CustomValidator1" runat="server"
ControlToValidate="DropDownList2"
ErrorMessage="You must make a lunch choice." ValidateEmptyText="True"
OnServerValidate="ValidatorTest_ServerValidate"></
asp:CustomValidator></td>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Here is the custom validation code. For testing, I set it to
automatically "fail".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub ValidatorTest_ServerValidate(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal
args As ServerValidateEventArgs)
args.IsValid = False
End Sub
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Here is the code on the Submit button.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub btnSubmit_Click(sender as Object, e as EventArgs)
If Page.IsValid then
Response.Write("Page is valid")
Else
Response.Write("Page is not valid.")
End If
End Sub
