I've search the archives and can't find an answer to my question, so I'm hoping
someone can help here.
I'm using the new commons-validator 1.0 recently released and Struts 1.1-b2. I cannot
get email validation to work (i.e nothing happens when bad email addresses are
entered). I *can* get required validation to work just fine for all fields (including
email). I've gone through my validation configuration setup many, many times and
simply have no idea where to go next. This is very perplexing. Any help would be
*greatly* appreciated.
