Now lets talk about the Validation Extender.
One of my least favorite things to have to worry about is client input validation. In particular I hate monkeying around with Regular Expressions and the Regex classes of the framework. One main reason is that I don't really understand Regular Expressions that well. However, with the PureComponents ValidationExtender, it was one of the easiest things I've done in a long time.
The ValidationExtender is packed with loads of customizable features and provides properties to a range of .NET native controls. It is virtually 100% customizable in appearance and mode. My favorite feature to use was the Regex validation. I may not be good at Regex, but I can search the web and find Regex statements with the best of 'em. All I had to do was find the one I needed - in this case an email validation string - plug it into the Regex string property, set my validation mode, choose how I wanted invalid values to appear, and wham....validation! The whole process including the web search took less that two minutes.
Some of the features of note are:
-Validator types: Comparable, Conditional, DataType, Length, RegEx, List, Range, and Required.
-Customizable display mode for error messages.
-Global default values.
-Very easy to use.
