Validator Tags - Lost Alerts

[Ted Husted <hu...@apache.org>]

I was updating an application to use the latest version of the Validator
tags (0702), and the client-side alerts disappeared. The scripts are
there, 
and the names match up, but no alerts ;-( 

Meanwhile, the server-side validations are working just fine ....

Any insights?

Thanks, Dave. I tried it with IE 5.5 from another station, and it worked
fine again. 

Turns out the Javascript on my local copy of IE is turned off, and, as
you say, many of the new validators don't work under Netscape 4.7x. 

I was omitting most of these before, but just copied everything over
wholesale when I was moving to the current format. I took out everything
but required, mask, integer, creditCard, and email, and everyone is
happy again, even under Netscape.

I'll watch for the fix ;-)

What type and version of browser are you using?  

I'm looking at it and the example webapp work under IE
6.0, but doesn't in Netscape 4.75.  Someone e-mailed
me the other day that in Netscape 4.0 (or close to
that version) that float and other primitives were key
words and you couldn't name objects/functions after
them (which I'm doing).  It looks that is the same
problem for Netscape 4.75.  If I delete these methods
or change "oShort = new short();" to "oShort = new
short_();" then everything start working again.  I
need to make it so you can specifiy an alternative
function/object name for a validator or automatically
put an underscore or something at the end of the name.
 I'll probably do the latter for now.
