           Summary: [validator]javascript date validation failure
           Product: Commons
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Validator
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: franck1993@yahoo.fr


if neither datePattern nor datePatternStrict is specified in validation.xml, 
the validation should use the short date pattern of user's locale or default 
locale. The client side validation always fails (javascript error occurs) when 
no date pattern is specified for the field. 

Javascript error in function "validateDate(form)" : 
datePattern has no properties on line :

if ((field.type == 'hidden' ||
                field.type == 'text' ||
                field.type == 'textarea') &&
               (value.length > 0) && (datePattern.length > 0) &&

I suggest that function is modified so it tests whether datePattern is null 
after instruction "datePattern = oDate[x][2]("datePattern");" and if so 
initializes it to a global javascript variable that would be dynamically 
generated with a value based on the locale : ((SimpleDateFormat) 
DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, theUsersLocale)).toPattern
