Where am I supposed to insert the code that you give?
I use the DynaValidatorForm with plug-in by the end of
the struts-config.xml file. And I have validation.xml
and validator-rules.xml file in the AppName/WEB-INF
directory.
Why all my validation warning messages line up? I
hope that each warning messages starts at the
beginning of a new line?
[code]
public ActionErrors validate( ActionMapping
mapping,
HttpServletRequest
request )
{
ActionErrors ae = new ActionErrors();
/*
* only validate if the form has actually been
POSTed.
* This keeps error messages from appearing
when the
* form is displayed for the first time.
*/
if ( request.getMethod().equals( "POST" ) ) {
return super.validate( mapping,
request );
} else {
return null;
}
}
[/code]
