RegisterForEventValidation can only be called during Render()
posted

I added a WebHTMLEditor control and WebSpellChecker control onto a UserControl. I then set the SpellCheckerId property on WebHTMLEditor to the id of WebSpellChecker. I then reference the UserControl from an ApplicationPage. After deploying the SharePoint site the page loads, I enter text into the editor and click the SpellCheck button. A dialog box opens with the text "Spell Checking Document" for about a second and then is replaced by the error below. What should I do to resolve this issue?

    To get around this problem, you can turn off Event Validation at the page level.  I wouldn't recommend this until you consider the security ramifications of doing so.  It may or may not make sense, given the context of your page.  In our case, it did make sense because the text was the only input we were considering (for instance, our page contains no dropdown lists that contain values constrained by authorization rules, etc.).

    To turn off Event Validation, you can add the EnableEventValidation attribute to the Page directive.  See below.

    <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="False" ...
