Are you're trying to say?
shortDiagnosisDescription is required if diagnosisDescription is NULL OR status is Off

That makes sense. So if I had two input fields and a radio button (status-that is defaulted to a checked value from my ValidatorForm) I would think the following would work:
<field property="shortDiagnosisDescription" depends="requiredif"> <arg0 key="searchForm.shortDiagnosisDescription"/> <var> <var-name>field[0]</var-name> <var-value>diagnosisDescription</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-test[0]</var-name> <var-value>NULL</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field[1]</var-name> <var-value>status</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-test[1]</var-name> <var-value>NULL</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-join</var-name> <var-value>OR</var-value> </var> </field>
<field property="diagnosisDescription" depends="requiredif"> <arg0 key="searchForm.diagnosisDescription"/> <var> <var-name>field[0]</var-name> <var-value>shortDiagnosisDescription</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-test[0]</var-name> <var-value>NULL</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field[1]</var-name> <var-value>status</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-test[1]</var-name> <var-value>NULL</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-join</var-name> <var-value>OR</var-value> </var> </field>
That basically says if nothing is entered in either input field just use
the the value given for the status radio button. Using the above listing
however doesn't behave as I expect. Are radio buttons evaluated
differently? Looking at the validateRequiredIf method doesn't seem to
indicate that. Thanks to all the help thus far.

That would be me. For the moment, here's a simple example of a requiredif:
Let's say you have three fields in your form, Sex, dateOfLastMamogram, and testResult. If sex is 'F' or 'f', dateOfLastMamogram should be required. If dateOfLastMamogram is not empty, testResult is required. Here the validator XML for it:
<form name="medicalStatusForm">
<field property="dateOfLastMamogram" depends="requiredif"> <arg0 key="medicalStatusForm.dateOfLastMamogram.label"/> <var> <var-name>field[0]</var-name> <var-value>sex</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-test[0]</var-name> <var-value>EQUAL</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-value[0]</var-name> <var-value>F</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field[1]</var-name> <var-value>sex</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-test[1]</var-name> <var-value>EQUAL</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-value[1]</var-name> <var-value>f</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-join</var-name> <var-value>OR</var-value> </var> </field>
<field property="testResult" depends="requiredif"> <arg0 key="medicalStatusForm.testResult.label"/> <var> <var-name>field[0]</var-name> <var-value>dateOfLastMamogram</var-value> </var> <var> <var-name>field-test[0]</var-name> <var-value>NOTNULL</var-value> </var> </field> </form>
I've added this example to the Validator dev guide and the Struts FAQ to
hopefully reduce the number of these queries.

Are there any other examples of using conditionally requiredfields forthe validator? I find the example here a bit confusing.
You're not the only one. I still haven't figured it out although I haven't spent much time with it. A committer (can't remember which one) has developed an easier validation method for this kind of thing. We should be adding it for 1.2.
I need to
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/dev_validator.html
Specifically the part: <form-bean name="dependentlistForm" type="org.apache.struts.webapp.validator.forms.ValidatorForm">
<form-property name="dependents" type="org.apache.struts.webapp.validator.Dependent[]" initial="{'','','','','','','','','','',''}"/> <form-property name="insureDependents" type="java.lang.Boolean" initial="false"/>
</form-bean>
'Where dependent is a bean that has properties lastName, firstName, dob, coverageType'
Is 'dependent' referring to Dependent[] or dependentlistForm? If Dependent[], I don't see this in the src. Or this somethingcode? Thanks for any clarity you can offer.
