Date validator and I18N
In my web application I deal with three languages (Croatian, German and English). Application does have forms allowing user to input a date value. When english locale is active user must have the ability to insert date in english date format (mm/dd/yyyy), also croatian and german users must have the ability to insert dates in their own date format (dd.mm.yyyy). How to define a validation for such a situation? In mask for date validation (in validation.xml) I can define only one date format pattern!

Thanks Nial and others. Yes, that's it, exactly. Unfortunately I have to duplicate my <formset> group for each language but I think copy/paste will help. BTW, I'll look at nightly build of Validator and its inheritance feature to see how could I exploit this new functionality.

In your validation.xml you can define different formsets for different
localle by specifiying language/country/variant attributes
<formset language="" country="" variant="">
Means you have to duplicate your validation rules for each language in
Struts 1.1 - however the latest nightly build of validator includes an
"inheritance" feature which I believe (don't know much more about it) will
make this easier:
