Thanks Jim, this was along the lines off what i was thinking.
Can i not just say validate=true in my struts config for my error validation, or must i call super.validate from my action form before i do my warning logic?
cheers

Hi
I have the requirement to perform server side validation on a form, no
probs. The problem is that i have a set of error rules and a set of
warning rules. There is no problem defining the errors in my
validation.xml and returning the user to the page to correct them,
however at some point probably when all error messages have been
validated i need to show warning messages. For example "value X is
outside of the normal range do you want to continue?" If not i want the
user to be able to change their value, however this then means i need to
do the error checking again incase the user has changed there warning
value to an error value!! I thought of the idea of having error rules in
my validation.xml and then dynamically validating the warning rules
progmatically in my action (not sure if this is the best method
though). Has anyone come across a solution or able to think of a better
method of implementing this functionality.
Struts, I believe, has no real mechanism for warnings, so your going to have to put that into the session yourself. I think the better place would be in the validation method of your form. Make sure you call super.validate. Any errors it returns will be errors, then you can check for warnings, putting those messages into your warning attribute.
Many thanks
Andy
