Hi,
I haven't been able to successfully use the Validator for doing Date
validations with struts 1.1 b3.
I need to localize the date format. Since Validator would anyway take
the default locale and the SHORT form of the date from the system, I
have decided that I will use the short format in all Locales. But I am
facing the following problems.
1. If I don't specify the "dateFormat" and/or "dateFormatStrict", I am
getting JavaScript errors (msg: length is null or not defined..) in the
2nd line in the code below (from validator-rules.xml)
var datePattern = oDate[x][2]("datePatternStrict");
if ((form[oDate[x][0]].type == 'text' ||
form[oDate[x][0]].type == 'textarea') &&
(value.length > 0) &&
(datePattern.length > 0)) {
var MONTH = "MM";
var DAY = "dd";
var YEAR = "yyyy";
var orderMonth = datePattern.indexOf(MONTH);
var orderDay = datePattern.indexOf(DAY);
var orderYear = datePattern.indexOf(YEAR);
2. Validator seems to be using a fixed date format (last 6 lines in the
code above). How can the JavaScript take care of other locales/formats?
Do I need to change the JavaScript per installation basis or Do I need
to download a different version of struts jar? What exactly is required
to achieve localization.
IMP: As far as possible, I would like to avoid specifying the
"dateFormat"/"dateFormatStrict" in validator-rules.xml since I want to
use the default locale's SHORT form.
Thanks,
Suresh
