<VLSUMMARY> Custom Tag

The vlsummary custom tag allows you to summarize the error messages from all validators on a form in a single location. The error message displayed in the summary for each validator on the form is specified by the ErrMsg Attribute of corresponding validator. If the ErrMsg Attribute of the validator is not set, no error message is displayed in the summary for that validator. You can also specify a custom title in the heading section of the summary by setting the HeaderText attribute.
