Re: Problem using client side form validation feature. Friends, please help!!!

[Laurie Harper <la...@holoweb.net>]

This is normal. From the documentation for the html:javascript tag [1]

"... The dynamicJavascript and staticJavascript attributes default to 
true, but if dynamicJavascript is set to <code>true</code>  and 
staticJavascript is set to <code>false</code> then only the dynamic 
JavaScript will be rendered. If dynamicJavascript is set to 
<code>false</code>  and staticJavascript is set to <code>true</code> 
then only the static JavaScript will be rendered which can then be put 
in separate JSP page so the browser can cache the static JavaScript."

What you are seeing is the static part. Try setting staticJavascript to 
false to see the difference. I think that will give you what you want in 
your page, but note that you still need to make that static code 
available to the page.

To do that, create a JSP to render just the static Javascript (i.e. a 
JSP with an html:javascript tag, where dynamicJavascript is set to false 
and staticJavascript is set to true). Then reference that JSP from a 
<script> tag in the original page.
