TextBox inside GridView validation

This is my code:

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Email">
    <ItemTemplate> 
        <asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Email") %>' Width="88px" CausesValidation="True" />
        <asp:RegularExpressionValidator runat="server" ErrorMessage="Enter a valid email id!" ValidationExpression="w+([-+.]w+)*@w+([-.]w+)*.w+([-.]w+)*" ControlToValidate="txtEmail" />
        <asp:RequiredFieldValidator runat="server" ErrorMessage="*" ControlToValidate="txtEmail" />
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

when i am clicking next button required field validation is not causing validation and its not showing any error and page is re-directing on next page.

Please help me.

        grd.DataSource = items;

        grd.DataBind();
    }
}

Method 2

There might be the problem with the Validation group, you can check that.

Secondly you need to set the CausesValidation="true" in your button control.

Plus your email regular expression is not correct as well.

w+([-+.]w+)*@w+([-.]w+)*.w+([-.]w+)* // yours
w+([-+.']w+)*@w+([-.]w+)*.w+([-.]w+)* // correct one

Method 3

Did you add Script Manager to your project ?

If so, nothing wrong with your validation code.

Just an idea, maybe you should add to validation controls EnableClientScript="false"

Method 4

You would need to check if CausesValidation is enabled for the next button you are clicking.

Also in addition try setting the InitialValue-“” for the Required field validator

EDIT

Try modifying your code to adding the client script such as

button.Attributes.Add("onclick","return methodname");

Method 5

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function ValidateText(i) 
{
    if(i.value.length>0) 
    {
    i.value = i.value.replace(/[^d]+/g, ''); 
    }
}

</script>

<asp:TemplateField >
      <ItemTemplate>
              <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" onkeyup ="ValidateText(this);"></asp:TextBox>
     </ItemTemplate>

</asp:TemplateField>
