use this code-

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function autoSelect(control,type) 
{ 
if(type=="Email")
{
 document.getElementById('Email').style.display="block";
 document.getElementById('PhoneNo').style.display="none";
 ValidatorEnable(document.getElementById("RequiredFieldValidator1"), true);
 ValidatorEnable(document.getElementById("RequiredFieldValidator2"), false);

 }
else
 {
 document.getElementById('Email').style.display="none";
 document.getElementById('PhoneNo').style.display="block";
 ValidatorEnable(document.getElementById("RequiredFieldValidator1"), false);
 ValidatorEnable(document.getElementById("RequiredFieldValidator2"), true);
 }
} 
    </script>

If you ever find yourself needing to selectively disable an asp.net validator through javascript, you can do the following

function doSomething()
{
var myVal = document.getElementById('myValidatorClientID');
ValidatorEnable(myVal, false);
}
