CS 351: Program 2

Student Learning Objectives

• Use ASP.NET and Visual Studio to demonstrate the use of
  • Validation Server Controls in a Web Form
  • Redirection to another Web page upon button click
  • Regular expressions to validate user input

Validate your code to XHTML 1.0 Transitional Standards and remove any glaring accessibility errors.

Assignment

• Create a new folder U:\Programs\nnProgram2. This folder should contain the file: Default.aspx
• Use Visual Studio 2005 to create a ASP.NET Web form to accept and validate user input (see validation rules below)
• Once the page contains legal input, the Sign Me Up button should redirect the browser to the CWU home page (www.cwu.edu)
• Implement a Clear Button to clear the input widgets and any corresponding error messages
• Duplicate the form layout shown in the Program 2 screen snapshots shown below using CSS tableless layout

Validation Rules

• User ID: Required. Must be between 3 to 10 characters in length. May contain only letters, numbers, and the '_' (underscore) character
• Password: Required. Must be at least 6 characters in length and no more than 25 characters. Must contain at least one letter and one number
• Re-enter Password: Required. Must be an exact match with Password
• Email Address: Required. Must be in the form aaa@bbb.ccc where a, b, and c may be a letter, digit, or underscore (of length one or more)
• Age: Required. Must be 21 years of age or over
• Gender: Required (male or female)
• Initials: Optional. Only uppercase letters allowed. Must be exactly 2 or 3 letters in length
• Last Name: Optional. May contain only letters. Maximum length is 15 letters

To Receive Credit

• This program is due at the start of the next Lab (Wednesday)
• Print out Default.aspx as displayed in a browser twice
  1. one with no input date and all the required field error messages displaying
  2. one with a random sample of the other error messages
• Annotate your printout to note
  • Any problems that remain in your solution (to assist with grading)
  • Your total completion time (rounded to the nearest half-hour)
• Save your work in U:\Programs\nnProgram2 folder
  • Your program code will be checked online
