I have one question regarding to struts validation for French input characters.
I have some input fields in the form to accept the French character input, such
as Street name,
person's name,
In struts's validation.xml file, I have defined the following rule:
<global>
<constant>
<constant-name>streetName</constant-name>
<!-- French version -->
|<constant-value>^\w+$</constant-value>
</constant>
</global>
<global>
<constant>
<constant-name>personName</constant-name>
<!-- French version -->
<constant-value>^\w+$</constant-value>
</constant>
</global>
<field property="streetName" depends="requiredif,mask">
<msg name="mask" key="form.addSite.caption.streetName.maskmsg" />
<arg0 key="form.addSite.caption.streetName" />
<var-name>mask</var-name>
<var-value>${streetName}</var-value>
</var>
</field>
.......
When I do the testing and enter the French characters for the streetName which
contain French characters, such as, DÉSAUTELS, the struts complain about the
invalid street name because of special French charactor É,
in fact the street name: DÉSAUTELS is a real street name,
My question is how to define the validation rule to include that French
character into the <constantvalue>^\w+$</constant-value>, according to regular
expression, \w+ should include the French charactor, but it is not?
Do I miss something? How to tell struts validator to include the French locale
for input validation purpose? Do I need to set locale for the formset tag
inside the validation.xml file
Thanks.....
