<snip/> David, did we ever implement the Validator "type cache" feature, where it would add a validated type to a Map? In most cases, the Validator actually does the type conversion to validate the data. The idea was that it should then store the converted value in a Map where an Action could get at it later. So, we get both validation and conversion in the same standard, easy to use package :0) -Ted. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
