I mean that when I input characters in an integer-only field, the
validation is not triggered, the values are just set on the form.
However, I have tried to dig a bit more into this, and have looked at
the html generated. And it looks like it might have something todo
with the fact that we are running struts inside a portal. The plain
form attributes are prefixed with a string by the portal, but the
attributes defined using nested, are not. The odd thing though, is
that the values do get to the form, they just don't seem to be
validated. Does the Validator reference the form attributes in a
different way then the form population?
Any ideas?
