Allong with discriptive information there's also a <html:file> element to upload the file itself. So far use a DynaValidatorForm to do validation. Everything works fine for the text based form elements. I would also like to validate the file (FormFile) for size (it shouldn't be bigger than e.g. 1 MB) and MIME type (pdf, doc, exe, zip, etc.). Is there any extension for the Validator framework that can accomplish this? Of course I could write my own validator class, I'm just curious if something like this has been done already and is a readily available.
