thanks for your reply Niall.. when i looked into both jars with care, it seems the best solution is; removing trim methods from validator scripts and use the shale's validateUtilities.js file (it contains trim method - it's reasonable because trim is a utility method and every validator script can use it from here)... But IMO, validateUtilities.js file must be in commons-validator.jar... this protects two headed implementations in the future...

Until you raised it I wasn't aware of this and it would be more appropriate to ask the Shale developers why they provided a customized version of the script. Having said that, looking at their subversion repository[1] and the changes they made - it appears to be for the following Jira issue tickets: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/SHALE-194 https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/SHALE-248 SHALE-194 is obviously a workaround for the ids generated by JSF for components. SHALE-248 I'm not sure about - the trim() method has been in validateRequired.js for a long time and is still there in Validator 1.3.1 - it probably should be in validateUtilities.js but my guess is they experienced a problem (probably if the "required" validator is not utilized and therefore the JavaScript for it not rendered). As to your question of which should you use - for SHALE-194 it looks like you need to use the Shale version - but better if you confirm this with Shale: http://shale.apache.org/mail-lists.html Niall [1] http://tinyurl.com/2wwhj2 > thanks for your interest.. > > hasan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
