Since the converted value is what is checked during required, there was technically a non empty value now so the required case did not fail as I had expected it to. > Nonstandard validation/conversion behavior of <t:inputText> > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MYFACES-667 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-667 > Project: MyFaces > Type: Bug > Components: Tomahawk > Versions: 1.1.0 > Reporter: sean schofield > > Not sure if this is a bug but shouldn't a required field throw a > validation error if nothing (empty string) is posted?
