You mean something other that using StringTokenizer to split the input string on commas and Integer.parseInt to convert to ints and <, > to check if the numbers are in a valid range?
http://home.earthlink.net/~dwinterfeldt/overview.html has some examples for writing a pluggable validator to use with Struts and the Validator - but I think it's out of date (might be a start, though). -- Voytek Jarnot Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur. -----Original Message----- From: Weber, Jeremy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2003 8:19 AM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' (E-mail) Subject: Design Help Hello all, I have a unique requirement and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to implement it. I am using struts to install our server based product. Our product has several components which can be installed multiple times. If you choose to install a component you have to provide some configuration information for each instance installed. So if you install 5 times, you need to configure some port 5 times. I would like the configuration screens to accept text in the following format. Port: 1111,2222,3333,4444,5555. I can validate that there are 5 entries, no problem. How do I then validate each individual entry as being an integer and in the valid port range. If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate it.
