# Validate Div tag separately

I have 3 div tags.

Each having no. of textboxes and [button](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/63/how-to-add-button-in-datagridview-in-csharp-dot-net). Each [textbox](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/12714/dynamic-textbox-in-gridview) having [validation](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12234/validation-using-data-annotation-using-entity-framework). For all button causesvalidation [property](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/205/property-notification-in-c-sharp) is true. If I [click](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12423/social-login-magento-2-one-click-to-register-social) "button1" in "div1" tag will cause validation of other textbox in other div tags. \

I don't want to do this. How to [avoid](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/story/1518/tips-to-avoid-dengue-at-home) this?

Hi Goti, \

Set the ValidationGroup property of the elements in each div to a separate validation group.

```
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"
ValidationGroup="Div1"></asp:TextBox><asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button"
ValidationGroup="Div1"></asp:Button><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ControlToValidate="Textbox1" ValidationGroup="Div1"
ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server"
ErrorMessage="RequiredFieldValidator"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox2" runat="server" ValidationGroup="Div2"></asp:TextBox><asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Button"
ValidationGroup="Div2"></asp:Button><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ControlToValidate="Textbox2" ValidationGroup="Div2"
ID="RequiredFieldValidator2" runat="server" ErrorMessage="RequiredFieldValidator"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator><asp:TextBox ID="TextBox3" runat="server"
ValidationGroup="Div3"></asp:TextBox><asp:Button ID="Button3" runat="server" Text="Button"
ValidationGroup="Div3"></asp:Button><asp:RequiredFieldValidator ControlToValidate="Textbox3" ValidationGroup="Div3" ID="RequiredFieldValidator3"
runat="server"
ErrorMessage="RequiredFieldValidator"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
```
