I understand this stuff
--------
ActionErrors errors = form.validate( mapping, request );
if ( errors != null && !errors.isEmpty() ) {
saveErrors(request, errors);
setUp(request);
return (mapping.findForward(UIconstants.VALIDATION_FAILURE));
}
----------
I only have one issue with this approach. I dont know how to make use of
the built-in validation rules provided in validation-rules.xml in my
.java code.
I can check for simple things like not-null, not-empty etc. but checking
something like "email" field will be easier if I could leverage the
rules provided by Struts validation framework in validator-rules.xml.
Is there a way to do this ?
Essentially I want to use validation rules like "email", "mask" from
validator-rules.xml while writing my Action or ActionForm java code.
Any pointers ?
regards,
robin.

Hi Folks,
My previous post's subject was not clear. So here's a re-phrase of the
problem.
--------
My loyaltyPAge.jsp has two buttons - Exit and continue.
I want the validation to occur only when "Continue" is clicked upon.
But the <html:form in the jsp points to one actionmapping
having "validate=true" - that's why the Struts validation framework
tries to validate the input fields regardless of which button is clicked.
