That validation config doesn't seem to make much sense to me. The field accountNumber cannot be both int and string, so you have to use required instead of requiredstring if you want to process the input as int. If you want it as string, you have to use something else than the int validator, possibly regex or fieldexpression validator. Also the validators for the field should be inside the same < field > -tag so they can be short-circuited. Try something like this (almost straight copy/paste from the struts wiki pages):
<field name="accountNumber"> <field-validator type="required" short-circuit="true"> <message>You must enter a value for accountNumber.</message> </field-validator> <field-validator type="int"> <para m name="min">6</param> <para m name="max">10</param> <message>bar must be between ${min} and ${max}, current value is ${accountNumber}.</message> </field-validator> </field> On 8/8/07, orshoe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi all, > I am trying to enforce a "requiredstring" on a text field and also make > sure > it follows certain constraints.
