Preventing validation when form is first displayed
Hi, I have an action that is validateable and uses the validate method to ensure that an element isn't added to the database if it already exists in there. Unfortunately, the validation occurs as soon as my form is launched. I tried to follow the approach from the helloworld example to not have this happen, but it doesn't work. I would rather avoid using annotations for maintainability reasons. Would someone give me directions to how to stop validation from occurring when the form is launched.
Thanks,

I simply configured my default set of interceptors as follows:
<interceptor-ref name="validation" >
<param name="excludeMethods">
execute
</param>
</interceptor-ref>
<interceptor-ref name="workflow" >
<param name="excludeMethods">
execute
</param>
</interceptor-ref>
This makes sure that the validation doesn't occur when the action is initially fired. You can add more methods to the list if you'd like to.

I use to have a loadAction for each page and the real action to post to...
Maybe I didn't catch the problem, do you use that scheme?

RE Preventing validation when form is first displayed
Posted by ML...@abusinessware.com.
Hi,
I had the same problem, and added in my struts.xml :
<interceptor-ref name="validation">
<param name="excludeMethods">execute,
input,back,cancel,browse, detail, delete, goAdd, goModif, view</param>
</interceptor-ref>
<interceptor-ref name="workflow">
<param name="excludeMethods">
execute,input,back,cancel,browse, detail, delete, goAdd, goModif, view</
param>
</interceptor-ref>
So add the name of your first method in the excludeMethods, and the
validation will not occures.
