I recently used it on textboxes to set their background red when an incorrect value was entered. You have to do a small workaround to have it behave like the ASP.NET Validators which is detailed on Encorsia's blog here <http://encosia.com/2009/11/04/using-jquery-validation-with-asp-net-webforms /> and here <http://encosia.com/2009/11/24/asp-net-webforms-validation-groups-with-jquer y-validation/> .

Anyone have experience with PeterBlum validators or is there a free way to achieve this? regards Anthony (*12QWERNB*)
