What makes a checkbox unusual is that it only submits a value when checked - when unchecked nothing is submitted. You should therefore be able to validate that it's been checked with a standard "required" validator.
-----Original Message----- From: Morowitz, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17 March 2004 16:26 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Single Checkbox Required I have searched the archive of the list and I came up empty. I want to use validator.xml to indicate that a single checkbox must be checked 'true' on my form. Has anyone had success simply indicating a boolean field to be "required"? I've noticed that in the client-side javascript that is generated, validateRequired does not look at fields of type 'checkbox'. I have read that commons-validator added this functionality at some point in the past, but has it not made it into the Struts validtion package?
