Thanks for the input! I cannot find a validation key for email-validation though. Whenever I enter an invalid email I get the following error-message from the framework which I would also like to define myself in my property-file:
Email ist ungültig, das Format für E-mail-Adressen ist [email protected] Performing a grep on my whole projectfolder yields no search result. There is also no documentation on email-validation-keys in http://incubator.apache.org/click/docs/user-guide/html/ch03s04.html#control-properties Any hints?
