Matt Cheers for that, I guess that would explain the problem, also why all over the internet I see people using beans when using indexed properties. I have another validation component in my system that I think I can use to do the validation I want rather than the validation.xml.
The reason I'm using the indexed property method is that I don't know how many items I will have as this gets set at runtime from some xml schemas which ties into an Oracle XML-DB so everything needs to tie up with eachother. If there's no way to do this using the struts validator, I'll do a workaround elsewhere. Cheers for the help! Paul ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Paul - when using indexedListProperty in a field for validator, indexedListProperty is the name of the *form-property* from struts-config that you want to validate and property becomes the property *of that class* that you want to validate. In what you have posted above, this would mean that validator is trying to validate PropertyName[x].PropertyName - because PropertyName[x] is a String object though, there is obviously no PropertyName in it. I have never seen indexedListProperty used with a String object before, and am not entirely sure it is possible. I think the type of the object you use for your indexedListProperty must have a getter/setter for whatever property you use, and String fails that test. (Maybe somebody else will chime in and prove me wrong though...) I think the bigger question is - if you are using a set size String array for these fields, why not just simplify it and make 4 separate fields? You don't need to worry about indexed properties at all then. The only alternative I can think of is to setup a new class, and make an array of that.
