RE: Validator stops when an error is encountered

[Chaudhary, Harsh]

Hi,
This is probably a newbie question but here goes:

If we call validation manually, the method signature reads:
validate(ActionMapping, HttpServletRequest)

I know what the request part does, but how and where does mapping fit in
there? What does it do? And how does the validation framework use it?

Any ideas?

Harsh.

Thanks Niall...that is exactly the type of thing I'm looking for.

However, I tried it and it did not work. I suspect it is because I am
using older versions of Struts (1.1) or commons-validator (1.0.2). Do I
need to upgrade anything to get this functionality? I created my own
workaround by extending the JavascriptValidatorTag to generate the
following:

    function validateSignIn(form) {

        if (bCancel) 
      return true; 
        else 
      {
       var bResult = true; 
       bResult = validateMaxLength(form) && bResult; 
bResult = validateRequired(form) && bResult; 
bResult = validateMinLength(form) && bResult; 
 
       return bResult; 
      }

The less I have to customize the better, though.

Thanks again for your input.

In the struts-config.xml you can set the "stopOnFirstError" property to
false....

  <plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
    <set-property property="pathnames"
                              value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,
                                        /WEB-INF/validation.xml"/>
    <set-property property="stopOnFirstError" value="false"/>
  </plug-in>
