Never mind. This is what happens when you look at old documentation. On
Dave's web site, in the doc for Validator, there is an example of defining a
constant like this -
<constant name="myConstant" value="myValue" />
This does not work! The correct format (from Chuck's book) is
<constant>
<constant-name>myConstant</constant-name>
<constant-value>myValue</constant-value>
</constant>
which works like it should.
Just another one of those 'gotcha's ' that crops up every once in
awhile.....
