  mask
  ^[a-zA-Z]*$
   


or you can override the default message:


   
   

   
  mask
  ^[a-zA-Z]*$

Struts Validator changing the "key" in the validator.xml

[Ben Kafka]

Was wondering if there is a way to access a unique string to display for a
"required" error in the javascript function under validator-rules.xml. Right
now the following happens:
If in the validator.xml file I specify the  it is
used by both the "required" and "mask" javascript functions to display a
canned error like
Firstname is invalid.
Firstname required.

How can I differentiate these. For instance I would like to say..
Firstname in invalid because only upper and lower case letters are allowed.

In the Application resources properties currently I have "{0} is invalid"
for my "errors.invalid" tag. What I would like to have is "{0} is invalid
because {1}" but I don't know how to define the {1} in the validation.xml
and validation-rules.xml.

Struts Validator - mulitple forms on one page

[Ben Kafka]

Hi,

  Would like to know if I can validate using js with multiple forms in one
file. Currently I'm having a problem. When I use  and
  only the last one specified
works. The other form gives me a javascript error. Is there anyway around
this?

RE: Struts Validator Questions

[Ben Kafka]

Hi,

  Was able to fix the first problem by going into the js and checking for
"select-one" and value=0.

  Regarding the 2nd issue, I have specified the class where I put the method
in the
valiation-xml e.g. my clasname="com.mypackagename.ui.RegistrationForm"  and
I have
a method there called
validateTwoFields(Object bean,ValidatorAction va,... just like yours.

The only difference is that in errors.add() I have
errors.add(field.getKey,StrutsValidatorUtil.getActionError(.)
and you have
errors.add(field.getKey.ValidatorUtil.getActionError(.

I am compiling and running okay, but it never gets to this routine.
(Thanks for your help by the way)

Ben

The "select-one" is the correct type in Javascript for
an html:select tag.  I'm not sure what is in your
select list, but if it is an integer how can you check
that it is blank (zero length string) or null?  You
could use the range method to see if it falls in a
range or write your own.

No error messages?  Everything works on the same
principle.  Does the validator definition in the xml
have the same method and class defined as where the
validation method actually is (no types)?

You can make a Javascript method to match if you want
to.  You can follow one of the examples to see how to
make a generic Javascript method.  You have access to
the error message and the variables you've defined in
the Javascript.

Struts Validator Questions

[Ben Kafka]

Hi,

   I started using the struts validator package about a week ago and have
the following questions:

1 - How do I get the validator to validate a required field for a selection
box?
My selection is on an integer property. I noticed in the
validator-rules.xml file it is checking for type "select-one". What "type"
is a ? I tried replacing "select-one" with "select" but it
still doesn't find it.

2 - Cannot get the two password comparison example working. I put in the
code specified under ~dwinterfeldt. Was wondering if anyone has gotten this
working. The only difference I can see in my code and the example was that I
am using StrutsValidatorUtil.getActionError instead of
ValidatorUtil.getActionError (the latter the compiler complained about no
such method signature). Was wondering if there was a javascript method also
that could be included.

jbuilder jsp and struts tags

[Ben Kafka]

Was wondering if anyone has been able to set break points in jbuilder6 for
struts tags when debugging jsp. I can set a breakpoint on a regular jsp tag
but not in a struts one e.g.
