How to get the list of validators for a control.

[Guest]

Is it possible to get the list of all the validators that are attached to a
control ( for example Textbox) using client side javascript.

Thanks.

Yes, client-side validators are acutally <span tags so you should be able to
do something like:

var spans = document.getElementsByTagName("span");
for (var i = 0; i < spans.length; ++i){
var span = spans;
var controlToValidate = span.exclude ||
span.getAttribute('controltovalidate');
if (controlToValidate != null && controlToValidate ==
'<%=TEXTBOXNAME.ClientId%>'){
alert(span);
}
}

span will them be a DOM object which points to a valiadator for TEXTBOXNAME
