finally solved it.

When you have the following DTD definition in your validation.xml file
snip=
<!DOCTYPE form-validation PUBLIC
         "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Commons Validator Rules
Configuration 1.0//EN"
         "http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_2_0.dtd";>

It breaks.

When you have the following DTD definition in your validation.xml file *
*snip=
<!DOCTYPE form-validation SYSTEM
"http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_1.dtd";>
=snip*
*It works

When you have the following DTD definition in your validation.xml file
snip=

Ok , dunno who to report this to but this validator stuff needs to be looked at before this
is released to the public cause it's a bit of a mess.


Just noticed that the version of validator-rules that is distributed is for the validator_1_1.dtd version.

I think somebody needs to take a little look at this. It doesn't seem to know whether to do
1.1 or 1.2 stuff. Some of the behaviour is from one and some from the other.

Thank you Bill, your answer was correct. I've found that commons-validator as distibuted with the latest
1.2.1 version of struts doesn't include the http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_2_0.dtd
file. So despite my specifying the DTD like so
snip=


<!DOCTYPE form-validation PUBLIC
"-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Commons Validator Rules Configuration 1.0//EN"
"http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_2_0.dtd";>
