Question

Hello i have a Big ASP Page and i must set in every ASP Button this:

CausesValidation="False"

to work. If don't it cant run a codebehind function.

can somebody explain to me why this is so?

Do you have a validator control in your page? If so, do you use ValidationGroups? — rikitikitik, Jan 07 '13 at 06:56
There must me validators on your page that are failing which is stopping the control to run a code behind function. you need to search the validator which is failing and do the needful. — Ankit, Jan 07 '13 at 06:58

It seems you are using Validation controls in your page. Your page must pass the validation before postback to server. Below is the functionality of CausesValidation property:

The CausesValidation property specifies if a page is validated when a Button control is clicked.
Page validation is performed when a button is clicked by default.
This property is mostly used to prevent validation when a cancel or reset button is clicked.
