how I can I have validation skip for the first page load?
Hello,
I would like to allow my forms to load once before being validated.
That is the form should only be validated upon submission, not on load.
The way that I'm accomplishing this right now is by creating a separate
action to load the form, however this is starting to clutter up the
struts.xml file as the number of forms on my site grows. Is there any
other way?
Thanks for any help or ideas.

The validation interceptor fires based on what you request, not based on
what you return. The technique Dave's referring to is to create an
action mapping with method='input' and a corresponding input() method in
the action. You then load your form with a URL of the form
...action!input.action. The interceptor knows not to validate a request
that's routed to the 'input' method, so your form loads without
validation. You then submit it to the action's normal execute() method
(or some other method besides input) and validation occurs.
HTH,

Sounds like an unrelated issue to me. There's not enough information
here to tell what the problem is. For example, what annotations did you
configure? How did it not work? What did you do that did work? What does
your configuration and action code look like?
Start a new thread with a complete description of the problem and
hopefully someone will be able to see where the issue is.

I'm having a similar issue with S2 as well. When using the validation xml it
will work but when using annotations it does not. Any clues to this would be
help full.

Thank you Dave.
I am using s2. However, I'm not sure how to implement this solution.
The validation interceptor runs before my Action, therefore I don't have
a chance to return "input."

I'm assuming S2 since you say struts.xml.
The "input" result (among a few others) are
pre-configured to not be validated (see the validation
interceptor docs).
