Answer:   A validator is a computer program used to check the validity or syntactical correctness of a fragment of code or text. IN ASP.NET there are six different types of Validators. 1.Required Field Validator. 2.Regular Expression Validator. 3.Compare Validator. 4.Range Validator. 5.CustomValidator. 6.Validation Summary RequiredFieldValidator:-Ensure that the control has a value to assign in it or user does not skip an entry. For Example:-   <asp:Textbox id="txtMobileNumber" runat="server"></asp:Textbox>  <asp:RequiredFieldValidator id="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server"  ControlToValidate="txtMobileNumber"  ErrorMessage="Mobile Number is a required field."  ForeColor="Red">  </asp:RequiredFieldValidator>   Regular ExpressionValidator:-Ensure that the value of the control matches the expression of validator that is specified. This type of validation enables you to check for sequence of character, such as e-mail address, telephone number, postal code and so on. For Example:-   <asp:TextBox ID="txtE-Mail" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>  <asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server"   ControlToValidate="txtPassword"  ErrorMessage="Please Enter a Valid E-Mail"   ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*"> // for internet E-Mail.  </asp:RegularExpressionValidator> CompareValidator:-Ensure that the value of one control should be equal to value of another control.which is commonly used in password,less than,greater than or equal to. For Example:- <asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:TextBox ID="txtConfirmPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:CompareValidator ID="CompareValidator1" runat="server"  ControlToCompare="txtPassword" ControlToValidate="txtConfirmPassword" ErrorMessage="Password does not match"> </asp:CompareValidator> RangeValidator:-Ensures that the value of the control is in specified lower and upper boundaries or specified range.  You can check ranges within pairs of numbers, alphabetic characters. For Example:-  <asp:TextBox ID="txtAmount" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:RangeValidator ID="RangeValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtPassword" ErrorMessage="RangeValidator" MaximumValue="5000" MinimumValue="100"> </asp:RangeValidator>> CustomValidator:-This control is used to perform user defined validations. ValidationSummary:-This validator is used to displays a detailed summary on the validation errors that currently exist.

Answer:
 

A validator is a computer program used to check the validity or syntactical correctness of a fragment of code or text.

IN ASP.NET there are six different types of Validators.

1.Required Field Validator.
2.Regular Expression Validator.
3.Compare Validator.
4.Range Validator.
5.CustomValidator.
6.Validation Summary

RequiredFieldValidator:-Ensure that the control has a value to assign in it or user does not skip an entry.

For Example:- 

 <asp:Textbox id="txtMobileNumber" runat="server"></asp:Textbox>
 <asp:RequiredFieldValidator id="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server"
 ControlToValidate="txtMobileNumber"
 ErrorMessage="Mobile Number is a required field."
 ForeColor="Red">
 </asp:RequiredFieldValidator>

 

Regular ExpressionValidator:-Ensure that the value of the control matches the expression of validator that is specified. This type of validation enables you to check for sequence of character, such as e-mail address, telephone number, postal code and so on.

For Example:- 

 <asp:TextBox ID="txtE-Mail" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
 <asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" 
 ControlToValidate="txtPassword"
 ErrorMessage="Please Enter a Valid E-Mail" 
 ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*"> // for internet E-Mail.
 </asp:RegularExpressionValidator>

CompareValidator:-Ensure that the value of one control should be equal to value of another control.which is commonly used in password,less than,greater than or equal to.

For Example:-

<asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtConfirmPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:CompareValidator ID="CompareValidator1" runat="server" 
ControlToCompare="txtPassword" ControlToValidate="txtConfirmPassword" 
ErrorMessage="Password does not match">
</asp:CompareValidator>

RangeValidator:-Ensures that the value of the control is in specified lower and upper boundaries or specified range.  You can check ranges within pairs of numbers, alphabetic characters.

For Example:- 

<asp:TextBox ID="txtAmount" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:RangeValidator ID="RangeValidator1" runat="server" 
ControlToValidate="txtPassword"
ErrorMessage="RangeValidator" MaximumValue="5000" 
MinimumValue="100">
</asp:RangeValidator>>

CustomValidator:-This control is used to perform user defined validations.

ValidationSummary:-This validator is used to displays a detailed summary on the validation errors that currently exist.
