Subject: Struts Validator and Select boxes
Hi,
I am using Struts validator.
One page of mine has dates displayed as MM DD .
All the above 3 are displayed in seprate combo/select boxes.
I need to do some custom validations on these fields.
I wrote a custom class for the same
Looks like -
public static boolean validateDates(Object bean,
ValidatorAction validatorAction,
Field field, ActionErrors errors,
HttpServletRequest request)
{
String actionType = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getVarValue(actionType)); // A hidden form field
String fromMonth = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getProperty());
String fromDay = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getVarValue(fromDay));
String fromYear = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getVarValue(fromYear));
String toMonth = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getVarValue(toMonth));
String toDay = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getVarValue(toDay));
String toYear = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getVarValue(toYear));
System.out.println(actionType + actionType);
System.out.println(fromMonth + fromMonth);
System.out.println(fromDay + fromDay);
System.out.println(fromYear + fromYear);
System.out.println(toMonth + toMonth);
System.out.println(toDay + toDay);
System.out.println(toYear + toYear);
return true;
}
O/P of the above code -
actionType searchPage
fromMonth 2
fromDay null
fromYear null
toMonth null
toDay null
toYear null
It also gives me No Name Specified error.
Point to note is that the all other fields other than 'actionType' are select boxes.
It gives a null for all the field types that are of html:select.
Is this a known BUG or am i going wrong somewhere ?

Re: Struts Validator and Select boxes
Posting whats in your validation.xml for the form and the bit of your jsp
with your select fields would be helpfull.
If you take the fromDay as an example, you are using
field.getVarValue(fromDay) - if you don't have a var defined in your
validation.xml for fromDay then that would cause the No Name Specified
error - same goes for fromYear, toMonth, toDay and toYear.
As for getting nulls, looks to me again that whats specified for the vars
in your validation.xml doesn't tie up with the names specified on your form.
From your code I would expect something like the following in your
validation.xml
form.
field
varvar-namefromDay/var-name
var-valueformFromDay/var-value
/var
varvar-namefromYear/var-name
var-valueformFromYear/var-value
/var
varvar-nametoMonth/var-name
var-valueformToMonth/var-value
/var
varvar-nametoDay/var-name
var-valueformToDay/var-value
/var
varvar-nametoYear/var-name
var-valueformToYear/var-value
/var
/field
/form
Do you have the properties in your form correct (i.e in this example
formFromDay, formFromYear, formToMonth, formToDay, formToYear).

RE: Struts Validator and Select boxes
Hi Niall,
I am attaching the validation.xml and the jsp that i have used.
I have done the exact thing that you had specified earlier before posting
to the mailing list.
I am not clear where i am going wrong.
The Struts-config entry goes like -
form-bean name=ocsReportForm
type=org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorActionForm
form-property name=monthFrom type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=dayFrom type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=yearFrom type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=monthTo type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=dayTo type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=yearTo type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=actionType type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=pageNumber type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=numberOfRows type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=dateFrom type=java.lang.String /
form-property name=dateTo type=java.lang.String /

Re: Map-backed Forms and Struts Validator
Hi Derek, from the ppt doc, it looks like validWhen is using a syntax that is designed for checking indexed properties. I haven't used it though. I assume that it would handle nested beans as well, in accordance with the rest of the action form functionality. But again, I don't know. Also it says you can't use validWhen until you upgrade to struts 1.2 or a nightly build. I admit, it doesn't look hopeful. Have you tried a simple test case using the syntax like in the ppt doc?

Hi Kamakshya! yes it is provided. just make it a ValidatorActionForm instead of a ValidatorForm. (check docs for further info) If you use DynaFormBeans, there is a DynaValdaterActionForm, but it never worked for me... hope this help, Axel On 2004-03-18 at 13:40:27 +0900, Prasad, Kamakshya wrote: Hi All, Is it possible for validation.xml to take action path attribute instead of form name for putting javascript validation rules for a page?

Map-backed Forms and Struts Validator
Read through the various Struts validator docs and the map-backed form faq but didn't see this. James Turner's Indexed Properties and Validation presentation (http://www.strutskickstart.com/IndexedPropertiesandValidation.ppt) came close, but still not explicit enough for me to figure out. :( Struts 1.1. Uses Commons Validator 1.0.2. Is it possible to use the Struts validator to validate beans stored in a map-backed form? If so, does anyone have an example at-hand to send me?

FW: Insert arguments into Validator error messages?
Hi,
I'm getting exactly this problem posted last year.
I've seen many posts on validator resource bundles including this patch:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10868
But have not found THE universally adopted solution.
Just to restate the problem:
I have a resource bundle for each area of my site:
(struts-config.xml)
message-resources parameter=resources.application/
message-resources key=CampaignManagerResources
parameter=resources.CampaignManagerResources/
message-resources key=EmailManagerResources
parameter=resources.EmailManagerResources/
Each resources bundle has a copy of the basic default error messages
like:
errors.required={0} is required.
I have validations like this:
field
property=subject
depends=required
arg0 key=viewEmail.subject /
/field
And display the error messages like this in a JSP.
html:errors bundle=EmailManagerResources /
With this config, when the validation fails, the message
(errors.required) is pulled from the correct bundle but the argument
(viewEmail.subject) is pulled from the default bundle and not the bundle
specified in the html:errors tag.
Hs anyone used the above patch? It doesn't seem to include an update of
the validation dtd file.
I really don't want to put all my error messages and arguments into one
file...
Any help at all will be gratefully received. From the amount of similar
posts on this list I feel that this is an issue for lots of people

Subject: SV: Insert arguments into Validator error messages?
Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2003 08:06:03 +0100
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset=iso-8859-1
When I removed the key = resource attribute in the message-resource
declaration in the struts-config.xml, hence using the default
Globals.MessageKey it worked... Can anyone please confirm this? All the
error messages and their arguments needs be to set in a resource-bundle
stored in the default Globals.MessageKey? Hence you can't use
html:errors
bundle=resource/ when presenting error messages WITH arguments?
Can anyone confirm that this is the case?
Thank you!

Ämne: Insert arguments into Validator error messages?
Hi,
I trying to insert an argument into a error message using the Validator
framework and I just can't make it work.
The validation itself works and it shows a nice display of my (TEST)
error
message also, but the argument is somehow lost.
If I use the resource=false attribute it works...
What I am missing here?
validation.xml:
form name=login
field property=name depends=required
arg0 key=label.name /
/field
/form
My bundle namned resource:
errors.required={0} TEST is required.
label.name=Name
And the output is (using html:errors bundle=resource/ )
TEST is required.
And if I use the resource=false attribute:
label.name TEST is required.
Why is the error message key found but not the argument key (label.name)
in
my resource-bundle?
Thankful for your assistance!
/Andreas

Re: Newbie needs help: Validator not working with Struts/Velocity
You say No errors are appearing in either the catalina.out or localhost log file - I don't think validator logs anything to those places and saying that makes me think what are you expecting to happen when validation fails. The normal course of events when validation fails is struts saves an ActionErrors object in the request under a certain key (org.apache.struts.action.ERROR) and forwards to the input parameter defined for your action. If you were using jsps you would then probably use the html:errors tag which processes the stored ActionErrors and displays the error messages to the user - I don't know velocity but presumably you could do something similar. Looking at your struts-config.xml, its your /Processing action which you are expecting to validate - its input attribute is /Payment.do - this action forwards to your velocity stuff /payment.vm - is there anything in /payment.vm which displays the ActionErrors? To be honest your action looks to be configured the wrong way round, I would have expected: action path=/Processing type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction name=paymentForm input=/processing.vm validate=true parameter=/Payment.do/ How about setting up a validation errors page in velocity and changing your input parameter - that way if you get an validation error you should see a different page. Something like... action path=/Processing type=org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction name=paymentForm input=/paymentErrors.vm validate=true parameter=/Payment.do/ Niall - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 10, 2004 5:54 PM Subject: Newbie needs help: Validator not working with Struts/Velocity I'm fairly new to Struts, and have been trying to get my simple application to work - using Struts 1.1, Velocity 1.3.1, Velocity Tools 1.1-rc1, and Tomcat 4.1.29.

Hi Ramachandran: Here's a suggestion: look at line number 63 of the servlet (in your work directory) generated by your first.jsp. See what the code there is and that may give you an idea of what's going wrong.. (seems like a null pointer somewhere, so try to see what may be null in that line of code ..)

validator framework / multibox and javascript validation
Hi all,
I have want to validate (client-side using javascript generated by the
validator framework) if my user has at least selected one checkbox in my
html:multibox form item.
Unfortunatly the javascript generator does not generate the JavaScript
needed to validate this.
I read somewhere on the mailinglist archive that this is a known issue
with struts 1.1. The advice was to upgrade using a nightly build.
I tried to do so, but unfortunatly this does not work with the Tiles
framework (which I'm also using in my application).
Can somebody tell me how to get this validation work?
Below provided my code:
I have a simple validator form:
public class SimpleForm extends ValidatorForm {
private String[] selectedItems;
public String[] getSelectedItems() {
return selectedItems;
}
public void setSelectedItems(String[] items) {
this.selectedItems = items;
}
}
And the following rule in validation.xml:
formset
form name=simpleForm
field property=selectedItems
depends=required
arg0 key=simpleForm.selectedItems/
/field
/form
/formset
I have the following JSP:
html:javascript formName=autoForm onsubmit=return
validateSimpleForm(this);/
html:form action=/test
html:multibox property=selectedItems
bean:write name=car property=id/
/html:multibox
/html:form
Thanks,

JXPath Validator
Hi guys,
I am just wondering: you guys have developed validwhen so we could have a
more powerful validator, right? But, while using just commons-validator in a
GUI (non-web) project, I noticed I could implement a very powerful validator
using
JXPath.
Here is the code for the static method:
public static boolean validateJXPath(Object bean, Field field) {
final JXPathContext ctx = JXPathContext.newContext(bean);
return
!Boolean.FALSE.equals(ctx.getValue(field.getVarValue(jxpath)));
}
Notice it's just a simple validator with no dependencies on
HttpServletRequest or ActionErrors. I don't know that much about validwhen,
but from what I've seen, XPath expressions can do everything validwhen
expressions can and even more.
Am I missing something? Is there any reason why a JXPath-based validator as
the above wouldn't be suitable for Struts?

I`ve been looking some more into the case and I think its becoming more of
a
design matter...
I dont know if I am using struts the right way or not.
Problem is that I am building business logic into my forms.. Is this good
or
not?
logic :if you are a business customer (based on a session bean)...
html:text ask for his VAT number
/logic
Should I make 2 different pages or use tiles or something completely else?
problem is that on the first page I ask 5 questions to the customer. Based
on their choices the second form is built up. all business related
stuff...
I tried to write a validator like requiredif but based on beans from
somewhere in your scope
struts logic can work on beans from your session or request scope because
it
has streight access to the pagecontext
I dont find a way to really access my pageContext in the validator.
but do you want your validator actually reading from your request scope or
session scope?
tnx for your time :)

Usually when I have this situation I just put in an else (or a
logic:notEqual in your case) which prints out the form field as hidden
with
some bogus data in it. That bogus data will be enough to make the
validation pass of course.
I had thought about doing the requiredifpresent or something like
that,
but
this always seemed much simpler.

Hello,
I am making a registration procedure that works with some logic
based
on
the
choices the customer makes on a previous page
logic:equal name=LogonForm property=customertype
scope=session
value=business
span class=labellabelbean:message
key=text.data.label.bill_vat_number//label/span

/logic:equal
Problem description :
When a customer is of customertype 'business' the field
bill_vat_nr
is
showed on the page and is required when a customer is not of
customertype
'business' the field bill_vat_nr is not showed on the page and
theirfor
is
not required
I tried to use a standard struts validator implementation
field property=bill_vat_nr depends=required
arg0 key=text.data.label.bill_vat_number/
arg1 key=${dummy}/
/field
I first thought about using the requiredif implementation. Problem
is
that
I
only get it to work with elements from the same form.
The result :
The bill_vat_nr is required even if it has been left out of the
form
by
struts logic
My question :
Is their a way to combine struts logic and the validator
framework?
Do
I
have to write a custom validator that does some kind of

Re: JXPath Validator
Sounds good to me.
I don't know if the validator guys considered JXPath, but why don't you
submit an enhacement request using bugzilla to commons with your JXPath
validator attached (if you include JUnit tests you'll impress them even
more).
For some reason the 'validwhen' validator is part of struts (rather than
commons validator) - I don't know why this is. From the look of it, it could
have been implemented in commons with a method in struts to call it. From
what I can see the only reason validwhen needs the HttpServletRequest is so
that it can get error messages. Presumably to process error messages in the
same way in a struts environment, yours would need to do a similar thing -
but that could be handled with a validate method in struts which calls your
commons JXPath validator.

the above wouldn't be suitable for Struts?

RE: Validator multiple message-resources
I'm not 100% sure but I believe this came up before. I that, while you can define multiple message.resources, you really can only actually USE one of them in sruts 1.1. I'd do a search of the archive because I think this has come up before.

Re: Struts logic combined with the struts validator
Maybe i`ll better rephrase my question to make it more easy for the reader
:)
I want to make a field in a form required when it exists on the form
if it is not on the form (due to some logic tags that make it disappear), I
dont want to generate an error.
How would I best solve this?
make a new validator requiredifpresent ?
or could I use the requiredif together with some logic based on values in
other beans ?

Subject: Struts logic combined with the struts validato
Hello,
I am making a registration procedure that works with some logic based on
the
choices the customer makes on a previous page
logic:equal name=LogonForm property=customertype scope=session
value=business
span class=labellabelbean:message
key=text.data.label.bill_vat_number//label/span
html:text property=bill_vat_nr styleId=bill_vat_nr /
/logic:equal
Problem description :
When a customer is of customertype 'business' the field bill_vat_nr is
showed on the page and is required when a customer is not of customertype
'business' the field bill_vat_nr is not showed on the page and theirfor is
not required
I tried to use a standard struts validator implementation
field property=bill_vat_nr depends=required
arg0 key=text.data.label.bill_vat_number/
arg1 key=${dummy}/
/field
I first thought about using the requiredif implementation. Problem is that
I
only get it to work with elements from the same form.
The result :
The bill_vat_nr is required even if it has been left out of the form by
struts logic
My question :
Is their a way to combine struts logic and the validator framework? Do I
have to write a custom validator that does some kind of introspection on
the
jsp? Or are their validators that are used for that purpose? What would be
the best solution to tackle this problem?

Re: Struts logic combined with the struts validator
Alexander -
Usually when I have this situation I just put in an else (or a
logic:notEqual in your case) which prints out the form field as hidden with
some bogus data in it. That bogus data will be enough to make the
validation pass of course.
I had thought about doing the requiredifpresent or something like that, but
this always seemed much simpler.

Re: Struts logic combined with the struts validator
Well ,
I thought about this as well.. however I cannot put bogus information in the
fields because their 'NULL' value matters to the registration process
I would have to filter on the bogus information... which I would not like to

Re: Struts logic combined with the struts validator
I`ve been looking some more into the case and I think its becoming more of a
design matter...
I dont know if I am using struts the right way or not.
Problem is that I am building business logic into my forms.. Is this good or
not?
logic :if you are a business customer (based on a session bean)...
html:text ask for his VAT number
/logic
Should I make 2 different pages or use tiles or something completely else?
problem is that on the first page I ask 5 questions to the customer. Based
on their choices the second form is built up. all business related stuff...
I tried to write a validator like requiredif but based on beans from
somewhere in your scope
struts logic can work on beans from your session or request scope because it
has streight access to the pagecontext
I dont find a way to really access my pageContext in the validator.
but do you want your validator actually reading from your request scope or
session scope?
tnx for your time :)

RE: custom validator question
I had a custom validator 'futureDate' for which I needed to pass in a
date and time which were 2 different form fields, to check that the date
was in the future.
I passed 2 different values into a custom parameter using two args and
vars:
form name=form
field property=emailDate depends=required, mask, futureDate
msg name=mask key=errors.invalid/
arg0 key=form.emailDate/
arg1 key=form.emailTime/
var
var-namemask/var-name
var-value${dateMask}/var-value
/var
var
var-nametime/var-name
var-valueemailTime/var-value
/var
/field
/form
In the custom validator I retrieved the two values using:
public static boolean validateDate(Object bean, ValidatorAction va,
Field field, ActionErrors errors, HttpServletRequest request)
{
String value;
if (isString(bean))
{
value = (String) bean;
}
else
{
value = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
field.getProperty());
}
String propertyTime = field.getVarValue(time);
String valueTime = ValidatorUtil.getValueAsString(bean,
propertyTime);
. . . . .
Hope this helps

Bug in Validator javascript, not showing all errors?
I have a form with 1 text field and 1 password field: username: required and maxlength 10 password: required The return statement for the validateLoginForm function generated in the dynamic javascript: return validateMaxLength(form) validateRequired(form); If I enter a username that is too long, validateMaxLength returns false, so validateRequired is never evaluated. The result is that only the error about username being too long is displayed, even if password is empty. This is not how it works on the server side. If I disable javascript and submit, the server side displays both errors: username too long and password required. Is this a bug? Why aren't the client side and server side validation results equal?

There's a parameter or setting somewhere that controls whether to return only the first error, or all the errors in the javascript alert window. Sorry I don't have the exact name handy.

validator + pre processing before foward
Hi all, I am using struts validator. I have a form that needs a object in the request to populate some bean:write outputs and some form input elements values. When I submit this form to an action mapping that has validate=true and the validation is not successfull, the user returns to the original page with the form, but my object is not in the request anymore, naturally. Is there a way to use validator and still be able to set a object in the request (or do something) before the user is forwarded to getInputForward()?? For now, I have disabled validator for this action and I am validating inside my action execute() method. (I use dyna action forms, that´s why I don´t use form.validate() ). Any suggestion?? tks Felipe - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Validator Order with custom validations
Hi All, I have the following setup for validating certain fields. I have written a custom validator for validating certain date logic. validation-rules.xml validator name=xxxDates classname=com.xxxValidator method=validatexxxDates methodParams=java.lang.Object, org.apache.commons.validator.ValidatorAction, org.apache.commons.validator.Field, org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest msg=errors.date.lessthanequal /validator validator.xml field property=presentationStart depends=required,date,xxxDates arg0 key=presentationStart/ var var-namedatePatternStrict/var-name var-valueMM/dd//var-value var-namesecondProperty/var-name var-valuepresentationEnd/var-value /var /field field property=presentationEnd depends=required,date,xxxDates arg0 key=presentationEnd/ var var-namedatePatternStrict/var-name var-valueMM/dd//var-value var-namesecondProperty/var-name var-valuepresentationStart/var-value /var /field and on my jsp html:form action=/propertyOffer onsubmit=return validatePropertyFormBean(this); html:text property=presentationStart size=20 / html:text property=presentationEnd size=20 / html:javascript formName=propertyFormBean/ Ok this works like a charm, if i submit the form without any values i get a javascript popup alert saying presentationStart is required, presentationEnd is required. However, when i put a value in presentationStart and submit i dont get a js popup for presentationEnd, however the validation runs and i get a server side error saying presentationEnd is required. So my question is when you put in a custom validator for one of the fields why doesnt it evaluate the required validation (javascript) for the 2nd field? is this a bug? Any help would be appreciated. If i remove my custom validator(xxxDates) from both fields, the js required pop up runs smoothly for the 2nd field if the first one is not null. So to recap when you put in a custom validator for one of the fields the validator doesn't run through the rest of the fields until it has performed the serverside validation on the custom validator for the 1st field.

Validator and DispatchAction
I'm quite new to the validator framework, and was trying to figure out how to use it. My situation is: 1) I want to perform server side validation, and so I made my form extend ValidatorForm; 2) the action that processes my form is a DispatchAction, so I have methods like edit, save list, all associated with the same form; 3) I call http://blabla/myapp/myAction.do?methodName=edit to have the app present me with an empty form; 4) When processing this action, struts allocates the form and calls the validate method, which of course causes validation errors to be produced, and the request to be forwarded to the input element of my action, which, as usual, is the same jsp which contains the form; 5) since the page finds some errors (the form is empty!!) they are shown by the html:errors/ tag. The only think I can imagine is to have a separate action in struts-config, which takes no form and simply redirects control to the jsp page which shows the (html) form. This should avoid Struts from calling the validate method, and hence html:errors/ should show nothing. Of course this would change a bit the logic we already placed in the application actions: for example action.do?methodName=edit in our architecture should present an empty form, while action.do?m=editid=88 should fill the form with the properties of the object with id 88, and then forward to the same jsp page, which then shows that object ready to be modified. If my above consideration is correct I should define two separate actions in struts-config, and let the links be something like newObject.do (for the presentation of an empty form) and unchanged for the loading of an object. Is all this correct ?Are there alternative approaches? Should I quit server side validation and only use client-side (which does not suffer from this problem)? Any help is very appreciated.

RE: Validator / Tiles and modules - anybody done it?
I highly recommend specifying the validator plugin in each module's config file. It will save you much pain later on for a minimum of effort. Each module can refer to the same validator rules and form files without problem. And, after all, it's 5 minutes at the most to copy/paste it to each module once you have the first one working. BTW, a couple things I didn't mention. 1) Make sure to keep your jsps, js, etc etc grouped together by module name--and MaKe SURE thaT yOur CASE MATCHES, or you'll have trouble with the struts:html tags such as rewrite later. 2) Keep in mind that the paths in your tile definitions are ALWAYS relative to the context root, not the module root. If you have a tile def myTile with a jsp stored under MyWAR/module1/jsp/myTileJsp.jsp, the path in the tiles-defs.xml is /module1/jsp/myTileJsp.jsp -- you probably already knew this, though. =) David Hibbs, ACS Staff Programmer / Analyst American National Insurance Company -Original Message- From: Bill Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2004 11:25 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: RE: Validator / Tiles and modules - anybody done it?

In each module's config, define the tiles plugin just as you would for a no-module app. Here's the gotcha that I ran into.

You MUST include set-property property=moduleAware value=true / in the plugin definition of each module. Any gotchas or things to know? If you see messages on the console about Plugin already initialized see the above--make sure you make ALL module tiles plugins module aware.

Re: Validator and DispatchAction
I ran into the same problem and converted all my DispatchActions to Actions. The downside is that there are more class files, but the mappings seem cleaner, especially in handling the 'input' attribute for html:errors /. Also, using Actions lets me specify different values for the 'validate' attribute. For example, I use the same form to lookup a records as I do to update it. In the case of the lookup, the Action pulls an identifier from the DynaActionForm that doesn't need to be validated (validate=false for this mapping). In the case of the update, full validation of all fields is required, so validate=true for this one.

Set validate=false in your action mapping in struts-config. This tells the struts framework not to call validate.

RE: Validator and DispatchAction
Renato, There is another solution that is clean. We use one action class with multiple (3) mappings to support our validation needs. With our editor scheme, the user proceeds to a Top page where they decide to Edit an existing or Add a new item. They then proceed to a Detail page where they build the item. The validations for the Top and Detail pages are different, and we use the same form for both. We want our server side validation failures to return to the page that caused the failure. For the Top page, that is not an issue, since there is only one possible page that could have caused the validation issue. We had to address the Edit and Add pages. For this, we have three mappings: Top - Handles initial requests for the Top page and actions from the Top page. In this case, the input attribute always returns to the same page. This mapping uses Top validations. Detail - Handles requests that originate from a detail page. This mapping uses Detail validations. In this case, the input attribute always points to the third mapping: ValidationFailure. We additionally add a new attribute that points to a specialized method in the action class. ValidationFailure - Handles requests where the detail validation failed. Uses a different parameter for the DispatchAction than the other two methods. Validation is set to false. The available forwards are the same as the Edit and Add forwards that are found in the Top mapping. When the failure method is used, it takes care of any prep work that is needed to return to the detail page. For example, there are some DB values that we put into the request (they should be in the session, but that's another story) when we go to the page. The failure method handles any of the necessary prep work. The last task is that we retrieve the parameter that was used for the original DispatchAction and return the mapping that will take us back to the page that caused the error. In our case, we use LookupDispatchAction classes, and this works well and is pretty neat. Additionally, all of our action classes extend a custom LookupDispatchAction class that implements the failure method as well as a few other things that are generic for all of action classes. Let me know if this helps.

Do you have to have the tiles plugin defined in each module config file? If so, how? Again, on the money. In each module's config, define the tiles plugin just as you would for a no-module app. Here's the gotcha that I ran into. IIRC, the docs indicate that the default is for the tiles plugin to be module aware. The docs were wrong. You MUST include set-property property=moduleAware value=true / in the plugin definition of each module. Any gotchas or things to know? If you see messages on the console about Plugin already initialized see the above--make sure you make ALL module tiles plugins module aware. Once you get past that problem, it's really pretty straightforward.

RE: Validator / Tiles and modules - anybody done it?
Thanks for the info David. One last question. Do you have to have the Validator plugin in every module's Struts config file if you simply want to have the same validation file for all modules? Can I just put the validator plugin definition in the default module's struts-config.xml and then all of the other modules get it by default? Thanks, Bill --- Hibbs, David [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm curious if anyone out there has gotten Validator and/or Tiles working with Struts modules? Here are my questions.

Separating Strut and Validator errors
Hi all, a quick newbie question. When I use an ActionError in my Action class in conjuction with the Validator, I get all my errors reported as server side validations (i.e. no java script). I have found the following code in the book Struts In Action to handle that but I guess it's depreciated... I searched over the web for a way to achieve the same but with no luck. Does anybody know what replaced the logic:messages tag or a way to achieve the same? Thank you for your time, Theo logic:messagesPresent UL logic:messages id=error LI bean:write name=errors/ /LI /logic:messages /UL /logic:messagesPresent

RE: Need help on making Custom Validator work
Hi All, I tried with plain html file to be displayed when validation fails. I am still getting following message: DEBUG (RequestProcessor.java:972) - Validation failed, returning to '/Logon.html' Browser just hangs. What does the RequestProcessor do after above message? I am using DynaValidatorActionForm at request scope. Does the RequestProcessor try to set the fields in my form to the values that it had received before validation failed? If so, how can I check there is no error in this process? Thanks for any hints/links/help.

Re: repost: validator retrieving data
If there are 2 actions, one to prepare the page and one to process the user input, we define the input attribute value of the process action mapping to be the URL of the prepare action. I think it's right, I think it's right only in simple cases If your prepare means: - Putting in the request a collection for a select (for example) - Initializing the form with data from DB or any other source You are doing 2 things completely different (logically) in the same action and that's why you need a workaround with hidden fields or hard coded path or The cleanest solution is to separate this prepare action in 2 actions. Too much? OK! Choose any other way you like! But it won't be clean. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
