Form validation issue

[john mcteague <jo...@gmail.com>]

I have the following form validation scenario that is causing some problems:

On my page I have two sets of three ValidFields, plus a Link Submit
component for each set:


[ValidField1-1][ValidField1-2][ValidField[1-3]
                                         [LinkSubmit1]

[ValidField2-1][ValidField2-2][ValidField[2-3]
                                         [LinkSubmit2]

ValidFields 1-1,1-2 and 1.3 are mandatory if LinkSubmit1 is clicked.
Likewise, fields 2-1,2-2 and 2-3 are mandatory if LinkSubmit2 is clicked.

I have 2 property-specifications of type boolean, each linked to the
LinkSubmits using the selected/tag bindings, so that in my Java class
for the page, I can perform some extra work depending on what link was
clicked.

If I click on the First LinkSubmit, the property-specification is
updated, however, not until AFTER the three valid fields have been
validated, so I cannot create a validator whose required property is
bound to the property-specification.

Is there a way around this, or a better way of selectively validating
the fields (without resorting to extra code in the Java class).

I've done that, but i've subclassed ValidationDelegate and override record 
methods, so when some validator records an error, I can select to record it 
or discard it.
I've to tell you that is not that easy.
