problem w.r.t javascript
Hi,
Iam trying to validate a simple form which has a name, password & email
field. I have validated that name field(html:text) should contain only
characters, password field(html:text) contains only numbers & email
field(html:text) should contain proper email id.
When i enter only numbers in name field, only characters in password field
& an invalid email id then only alert msg "please enter only characters" is
coming for name field & msg "pls enter only numbers for password field' *BUT
* no msg is coming for email field even though i have entered a wrong email
id. Also those two msgs are coming simultaneously but i want like this, i
mean to say when i click on submit button first only msg for name field
should show. Then again if i click submit button then msg for password field
should show & so on.
Also suppose if i enter the proper name (only characs) , proper password
(only numbers) & if i enter the invalid email id then it will show the msg"
please enter a valid email address".
Iam sending the following code for reference :
Validation.xml
---------------------
<!-- compose form Validation-->
<form name="InfoForm">

depends="required,mask,minlength,maxlength">
<arg key="ComposeForm.fname" position="0"/>

Hi Velmurugan,
Thanks for the link.
Iam learning struts, after going through this link only iam able to
modify my code. The code given in this site works fine. But the problem is
in the "name field" modify depends="required, mask, minlength, maxlength",
In "address field" modify depends="required, mask" & in "email field" modify
depends="required, email" then wht will happens is :
if u enter a wrong name, address, email then the alert msg will be shown
only for name & address field but the alert msg will not be shown for the
email field.
Is it some thing like that "All alert w.r.t required will be shown for
the first time", THEN "All msg w.r.t mask will be shown for the second
time", & so on?
Pls have a look to my code below.
Regards
Rauf

Re: problem w.r.t javascript
Posted by Rauf Khan <mk...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
Iam doing client side validations. Let me explain the problem. All field
are <html:text> & using struts 1.1
case 1:
Name : 3456
Password : abc
Email : def
In case1, if i click the submit button with the respective values, iam
getting alert msg "enter only characters for name" & "enter only numbers for
password" BUT its not displaying alert msg "Please enter a valid Email
address".
Suppose if i enter proper values for name & password field then it will
display alert msg "Please enter a valid Email address".
As in case i all the 3 values are invalid so it should show all the 3
alert msgs in one alert.
Only for name field iam checking that it should contain characters with
min. length=5 & max. length=6. For password field iam checking it should
contain only numbers. For email field iam checking to have a proper email
id. ALL field are required.
messageresources.properties:
---------------------------------------------
ComposeForm.OnlyNumbers =enter only numbers for password
ComposeForm.OnlyChars = enter only characters for fname
ComposeForm.InvalidEmail = Please enter a valid Email address.
ComposeForm.fname.minlength = First Name cannot be less than {1}
characters.
ComposeForm.fname.maxlength = First Name cannot be greater than {2}
characters.
validation.xml
---------------------
<!-- compose form Validation-->
<form name="InfoForm">
<field property="fname" depends="required, mask, minlength,
maxlength">
<arg key="ComposeForm.fname" position="0"/>
<msg name="mask" key="ComposeForm.OnlyChars"/>
<var>
<var-name>mask</var-name>
<var-value>^[a-zA-Z]*$</var-value>
</var>
<msg name="minlength" key="ComposeForm.fname.minlength"/>
<arg name="minlength" key="${var:minlength}" resource="false"
position="1"/>
<var>

<var-value>5</var-value>
</var>

<var>

</field>
<field property="emailaddress" depends="required, email">

<set-property property="stopOnFirstError" value="true"/>
</plug-in>
JSP
------
<html:form action = "/some" method= "post" onsubmit="return
validateInfoForm(this);">
<table>
<tr><td>Name : </td><td> <html:text property="fname"
/></td><td><!--<html:errors property="fname"/>--></td></tr>
<tr><td> Password : </td><td><html:text property="password" />

Re: problem w.r.t javascript
Posted by Adam Gordon <ad...@readytalk.com>.
Rauf-
Are you doing client or server-side validation? Or both?
W.R.T your multiple errors, there is an attribute you can set in your
struts XML file, namely:
| <plug-in className="org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugIn">
<set-property property="pathnames"
value="/WEB-INF/validator-rules.xml,/WEB-INF/validations.xml"/>
<set-property property="stopOnFirstError"
value="true"/>
</plug-in>|
Note that you must be using Struts >= 1.2.0 for this feature, though I
believe prior to 1.2.0, the behavior was to always stop on the first error.
I'm a little confused by your explanation but it sounds like you're
possibly missing the XML in your JSP for the email field since you say
it doesn't show up - the other rationale is that it's a valid email address.
Also, just an FYI, your password field does not have a max/min length
validation.
