Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	**true**	true, if the button click performs validation; otherwise, false.

Remarks

By default, a button click forces validation of an editor group that is specified by the ASPxButton.ValidationGroup property.

Note

Set the CausesValidation property to false when you use the ASPxButton.PostBackUrl property to post back to a different page. You should explicitly check validation when posting back to a different page.

You can use the following API to specify validation settings:

• ASPxButton.ValidationContainerID - Specifies a container that contains controls for which the button causes validation.
• ASPxButton.ValidateInvisibleEditors - Specifies whether to validate both invisible and visible editors.
