Help:validation is not working with struts1.2

[M.Liang Liu]

I tried to use validator in my struts application and I find a problem
occurred:
            The form did not validate itself and the execute method is
always called.

I active the plug-in in struts-config.xml as following:

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

and I write the validation.xml as following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE form-validation PUBLIC
          "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Commons Validator Rules
Configuration 1.0//EN"
          "http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_0.dtd";>
<form-validation>
    <global>
        <constant>
            <constant-name>phone</constant-name>
            <constant-value>^\(?(\d{3})\)?[-| ]?(\d{3})[-|
]?(\d{4})$</constant-value>
        </constant>
        <constant>
            <constant-name>zip</constant-name>
            <constant-value>^\d{5}\d*$</constant-value>
        </constant>
    </global>

    <!-- ========================= Default Formset
========================= -->
    <formset>
        <form  name="sForm">
            <field  property="name"  depends="required">
                <arg0  key="test.name"/>
            </field>

        </form>
    </formset>
</form-validation>

I write the struts-config.xml as following for mapping

 <action
      attribute="sForm"
      input="/form/s.jsp"
      name="sForm"
      path="/s"
      scope="request"
      type="com.eam.struts.action.SAction"
      validate="true">
      <forward name="success" path="/welcome.do" />
    </action>

The form extends the ValidatorForm,

But it does NOT work.

Who can  help me?


Thanks a lot.
