Re: Reasonable to use EJBs for validation in ActionForm validate method?

[Keith Pemberton <kb...@cox.net>]

The validation code of if the custom is already in the database should
be in your create method on the entity EJB.  Other validation code
concerning the webform (such as valid address) should go in the validate
method on the ActionForm that you have specified for the webform.  Hope
this helps.  Let me know if you need code samples.
