Use ASP.NET 2.0

ASIF,

If you can't use ASP.NET 2.0 then use server side validation instead. I
don't have the code to hand but essentially you can switch off client
side validation [useful for things like FireFox, Mobile Phones, PDAs
etc which aren't what MS call "upBrowsers" or something].

I think there is a property called EnableClientValidation and you can
set this to false - you could set this optionally based on the user
agent you have which is what ASP.NET should do but firefox sometimes
misreports it agent headers to trick servers into thinking it is IE5+

If you set that then it will do a postback and your validation summary
will be shown

Cheers
AndrewF
