Validation Firing eventhough it shouldn't

[John Talli]

Search: Master Page, Content Page, Validation, User Control, UserControl


I have a Master Page with the following content page (below). The controls are in the
user-control ucPrs_Who_Basic:tgPrs_Who_Basic. The buttons are in the content page and
the textboxes are in the user-control.

Why is the validation firing for cmdDelete although the cmdCancel button does not cause
them to fire. I don't want the validation to fire since the cmdDelete is just going to
delete the user.

Thanks
