In our last episode, I downloaded the 3/20 nightly build and discovered that adding a requiredif depends broke all the javascript validation on that page. I have since reverted back to 1.1b3 and, lo and behold, javascript is no longer broken (on Netscape 7, anyway). Even though the requiredif code I'm using has the "field-*" names.
Anyway, I thought I'd add this to the muddle. If requiredif is broken in 1.1rc1, it does not appear (to me anyway) that changing variables from "field-*" to camel case has fixed it.

You can't use field-* anymore. It generates invalid javascript variables so I changed all of those variables to camel case and removed the "-". Also, can you choose a different topic for the example? This one is kind of distracting :-).

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.
