Custom Validator and CheckBoxList

Recently, I was working on WebForms, with a CustomValidator associated to a CheckBoxList. The validator is working correctly, but is shown on a new line. For the rest of the controls, like textbox or dropdownlist, it works perfectly.

This is caused because the Checkboxlist, generates a HTML table element, wich by default is a block level element.

To fix this, we must add a CSS class to the checkboxlist, with the style property:

{
float: left;
}


With this style, the CustomValidator will be shown next to the CheckBoxList.
