http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28958 Multiple forms on same JSP using DynaValidator fail Summary: Multiple forms on same JSP using DynaValidator fail Product: Struts Version: 1.1 Final Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Validator Framework AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When including two forms on the same JSP, each using the DynaValidator, the validation will ALWAYS fail for the first form when both forms use the same types of validations as defined in the validator-rules.xml when using dynamicJavascript="true" for each form. The reason for this is that the DynaValidator generates the same name when using for the Javascript function no matter which form is being used. For example, any required fields for form "abc" will generate a Javascript function called required() for the page. Similarly, form "xyz" will also generate a function called required() for the page. Both forms will utilize the latter definition, resulting in a Javascript error for the former form with the following text: 'type' is null or not an object. This is because the field referenced in the required() function that was called does not exist in the form. The obvious workaround is to make these form objects in Java and define the validation there. The more permanent solution for the DynaValidator would be to have it generate the functions using the form name as part of the function name, such as "abcRequired" and "xyzRequired". This would remove any possible naming collisions associated with the DynaValidator Javascript generation. One could also just collapse all of the required/maxlength/etc. functions under the validateXXXForm and forget about splitting them out, but this is less desirable, IMHO. Using staticJavascript="true" by itself isn't an option, since the validateXXXForm isn't generated, making the DynaValidator useless in this situation. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
