What's the simplest method for both validating and requiring a certain
field?

For example, I have a field for an e-mail address.
I want to require the field AND validate it for email address.

One solution is to put 2 validators on the control but I would really
prefer not to do that.

Hope someone can help.

Carson

a.. The RegularExpressionValidator allows us to require certain formats for
the input, such as an e-mail address (a couple charaters, the @ sign, a
couple more characters, a period, and a couple more characters).

You cannot use a RegularExpressionValidator to Require input. This is by
design, but it does mean that you need 2 validators. As an alternative, you
can either write your own custom control that encapsulates this or use a
third-party tool like the EmailBox VControl that is currently in beta at
http://aspsmith.com/vcontrols/" target="_blank">http://aspsmith.com/vcontrols/ that is a single control that includes a
textbox and all the validation necessary to require, check format, and check
MX record of an email address.
