Sandeep,
The validateEnterAppInfo1(form) method gets called with the submit button
hardcode w/i the <html:form>.
If I remove the validateEnterAppInfo1(this) call, no javascript validation
will take place, while the server-side validation still works.
There is always going to be only one form per page, so using
document.forms[0].submit() should be ok.
When this form pass validation the data is submitted.
This is part of the generated javascripts:
<script type="text/javascript" language="Javascript1.1">
<!-- Begin
var bCancel = false;
function validateEnterAppInfo1(form) {
if (bCancel)
return true;
else
return validateRequired(form);
}
function required () {
this.aa = new Array("primAddrState", "Please select your state of
residence to continue.", new Function ("varName", " return
this[varName];"));
}
function validateRequired(form) {
var isValid = true;
var focusField = null;
var i = 0;
var fields = new Array();
oRequired = new required();
for (x in oRequired) {
var field = form[oRequired[x][0]];
if (field.type == 'text' ||
field.type == 'textarea' ||
field.type == 'file' ||
field.type == 'select-one' ||
field.type == 'radio' ||
field.type == 'password') {
var value = '';
// get field's value
if (field.type ==
"select-one") {
var si =
field.selectedIndex;
if (si >= 0) {
value =
field.options[si].value;
}
} else {
value = field.value;
}
if (value == '') {
if (i == 0) {
focusField = field;
}
fields[i++] = oRequired[x][1];
isValid = false;
}
}
}
if (fields.length > 0) {
focusField.focus();
alert(fields.join('\n'));
}
return isValid;
}
function required () {
this.aa = new Array("primAddrState", "Please select your state of
residence to continue.", new Function ("varName", " return
this[varName];"));
}

Subject: RE: Validator using <A href> instead of <html:submit>
What is the javascript created by the custom tag when
looking at the source?
I think you shouldn't need to call:
validateEnterAppInfo1(this)
but what happens if you do?
maybe there is more than one form? Is the form being
submitted and the data is in the form?
sorry I can't help any more than that.
