Question

Usually buttons are used to cause validation but I want to use table column to cause validation

Something like this

 --------------------------
|________________|  <--textbox

<tabel>
 <tr>
     <td>
     Click it to cause validation on textbox
    </td>
 </tr>
</table>

I know that it can be done using javascript. But is there any other method to perform the same without using javascript.

HI,
You can try server side by making runat="server" like below.
In code behind register td1.<<EvenName>> +=<<EventHandler>>
But I am not seeing too many events on server side
 <table>
        <tr>
            <td id="td1" runat="server">
                Click it to cause validation on textbox
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
