ASP.NET RangeValidator Control
 Complete Validation Control Reference
Definition and Usage
The RangeValidator control is used to check that the user enters an input value that
falls between two values. It is possible to check ranges within
numbers, dates, and characters.
Note: The validation will not fail if the input control is empty. Use
the RequiredFieldValidator control to make the field required.
Note: The validation will not fail if the input value cannot be
converted to the data type specified. Use the CompareValidator control, with
its Operator property set to ValidationCompareOperator.DataTypeCheck, to verify
the data type of the input value.

Examples
RangeValidator
In this example we declare one TextBox control, one Button control, and one RangeValidator control in an .aspx file. If validation
fails, the text "The date must be between 1/1/2002 and 31/5/2002!" will be
displayed in the RangeValidator control.
RangeValidator 2
In this example we declare one TextBox control, one Button control, one Label
control, and one RangeValidator control in an .aspx file. The submit() function checks if the page is valid.
If it is valid, it returns "The page is valid!" in the Label control. If it is not valid, it
returns "The page is not valid!" in the Label control. If validation
fails, the text "The value must be from 1 to 100!" will be displayed in the RangeValidator
control.
