How to validate Grid view in Edit mode using javascript?

Question

I have a grid view that can edit data, which is bound to an sqldatasource.

However, there are some text boxes in edit mode which I would like to validate. For example, one of the is required and cannot be left empty. How can I make such validation in edit mode in a grid view using javascript?

function ValidateGridEditMode()
{
var Grid = document.getElementById('gridview.clientid');

  //how can i get textboxes and apply validation
}

how have you bound your gridview? please show some markup.

Convert those columns into Template columns, and in the ItemTemplate, add a standard Validation control. Ensure that the EnableClientScript is set to true on the validation control.

There is a similar (but not exact duplicate) post here that gives a code sample in a valid answer.
