Re: Validation Problems
I had the same problem. The solution was that my webapp was not using:
jakarta-oro.jar
which is a regular expression package used by some, but not all, of the
validations.
- Charlie
Dear Struts users,
I have done a simple web-app using validator framework.
the JavaScript validations are proper.But in the server side
validations, i have problems.
Only,the 'required','minlength''maxlength' validations are
working.Rest other validators have no effect even though, i
have
used them in the validation.xml file.
eg- validate email-address has no effect even if i enter a
invalid email-address.
In javascript validations, if I enter a invalid email-id , I am
getting a error,whereas in server side there is no error shown.
Here is my validation.xml file .
form-validation
formset
formname=registrationForm
fieldproperty=username
depends=required,mask,minlength
msg name=mask
key=loginform.username.invalid/
arg0 key=loginform.username.displayname/
arg1 name=minlength key=${var:minlength}
resource=false/
var
var-namemask/var-name
var-value^\w+$/var-value
/var
var
var-nameminlength/var-name
var-value5/var-value
/var
/field
fieldproperty=password1
depends=required
arg0 key=loginform.password1.displayname/
/field
fieldproperty=password2
depends=required
arg0 key=loginform.password2.displayname/
/field
fieldproperty=phone
depends=required
arg0 key=loginform.phone.displayname/
/field
fieldproperty=email
depends=required,email
arg0 key=loginform.email.displayname/
/field
/form
/formset
/form-validation
Please,tell me what would be the problem and how to solve it.

The nightly build of struts now handles checkboxes, select's, radio buttons. I specify that the checkbox is required. I assume this means this means the checkbox must be checked in order for validation to succeed? However, validation for the form succeeds without this. Here is the code from validation.xml: field property=termsAccepted depends=required msg name=required key=errors.required/ arg0 key=bookingActionForm.termsAccepted/ /field Also, the credit card validation succeeds no matter what I put in for that field. Here is the code I have for that: field property=ccNumber depends=required,creditCard msg name=required key=errors.required/ msg name=creditCard key=errors.creditcard/ arg0 key=bookingActionForm.ccNumber/ /field (it does complain when I leave this field blank).

RE: Validation Problems
Websphere 5 has a nice struts-config UI that helps to keep everything organized. I've heard of other UI's out there too. - Keith -Original Message- From: David Graham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 02, 2003 5:26 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: Validation Problems --- Adam Hardy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What is it about action mappings?

Re: Validation Problems
I did as you suggested and it doesn't show the validation errors the first time (although I'm a bit disappointed I have to do 2 separate actions just for the same thing. Now if I hit submit I get the nullpointer exception regardless of whether I fill in the form correctly or not.

I figured out my problem. Thanks, Kent -Original Message-From: Kent Roylance [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Monday, July 30, 2001 6:09 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Validation problems I maybe taking the wrong approach with Struts where rather than creating an attribute for every tag html:text inputin the form for a web page, I create and and use an object that has all those attributes and store that object in the session. I have been able to get everything to work except when I validate and get a validation error. When I get the validation error in the web page, its wipes out all my attributes. Has anyone else ran into this problem? Appreciate any help, Kent
