How To Validate Any Three out of the Five Text Fields Are Required?
I have used the validation.xml to validate some
individual properties and been quite happy with the
feature.
Now, I have a form with five text fields. If any
three out of those five fields are filled out, it
passes the submit validation check.
Is there any way to set 'required' for this kind of validation?

Maybe you could do your ActionForm and override validate method...
This method could test if the validation is to be passed or not. If it
is to do validation you can rely on validation.xml.

You could probably use requiredif or validwhen to do this, but I think
it would be extremely messy. I'm not aware of another built in validator
that could handle this situation. You will probalby have to make your
own unless somebody else has a better idea.
