    text
    copied!<p>I'm trying to validate a <strong>TextBox</strong> used for the username in the user registration page. The conditions are:</p> <ol> <li>First character should be an uppercase letter.</li> <li>Length should be a maximum of 8 characters.</li> </ol> <p>I'm using a <strong>RegularExpressionValidator</strong> to check both conditions at the same time but this results in the same error message: <code>"Username should be maximum 8 characters long and start with an uppercase letter."</code>.</p> <p>I would like to display specific error messages based on the above conditions, say:</p> <ul> <li>Condition 1: Username should start with an uppercase letter.</li> <li>Condition 2: Username should be maximum 8 characters long.</li> </ul> <p><strong>I want both error messages to appear if both conditions are not satisfied.</strong><br></p> <p>Here is my present code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;asp:TextBox ID="username" runat="server" CssClass="InputText"&gt;&lt;/asp:TextBox&gt; &lt;asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rfvUsername" runat="server" ControlToValidate="username" Display="Dynamic" EnableClientScript="true"&gt;Username is required &lt;/asp:RequiredFieldValidator&gt; &lt;asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="revUsername" runat="server" Display="Dynamic" ControlToValidate="username" ValidationExpression="[A-Z][A-Z0-9]{0,7}" &gt; Username should be max 8 characters long and should start with an alphabet. &lt;/asp:RegularExpressionValidator&gt; </code></pre> <p>How do I achieve this?</p>
