The info in all the panels belongs in one form, table, whatever you want to
call it. The reason why I divided into separate panels is that I feel it is
easier for the user to comprehend then everything in one very, very long
page.
Ranganh, are you absolutely sure all validators fire, even those in hidden
panels. I created a test page containing 2 panels, each panel with a
textbox and requiredfieldvalidator. When I enter info in the textbox in the
1st panel and click submit, page.isvalid = true. The requiredfieldvalidator
in the 2nd panel, which is hidden, is not fired. This actually makes sense,
because like srini said, any hidden panels and their associated controls +
validators are not rendered.
