Radio buttons and Embperl Validate

[Justin Harrison <ju...@astyrrian.com>]

Hi,

I am using Embperl Validation for form fields. One field has a set of radio
buttons, all with the same name, but different values. I'd like to ensure
that at least one of them is clicked. I am using this data structure for it:

	[-key => 'data',
  	-name => 'information type',
  	-msg => 'Please select the type of information you remember.',
  	required =>'1',	
	],  

But the corresponding javascript for it does not seem to be correct. Is
there some way to specify a group of radio buttons like that which I am
missing?

I also tried to use the "Email" type in another validation form, but the
error I received stated that it could not find Embperl::Form::Email (with a
capital M, as stated in the docuemntation at
http://perl.apache.org/embperl/pod/doc/EmbperlFormValidate.-page-4-.htm#sect
_7 - Damn Outlook keeps changing the M to lower case!). Is it called
something else, or just not in this build?

Thanks!

Justin

There is currently no JavaSCript included for validating Radio Buttons. It's 
on my TODO list. In case you have some JS code that does the job I am happy 
to include it in the Embperl distribution.

I have missed to put the Embperl/Form/Validate/EMail.pm in the 2.0b9 realase. 
YOu can grab it from the CVS.
