Would you happen to have an example of this so I can look at it since I'm new to the commons api?
John >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/21/04 05:28PM >>> No, validator does not support pulling min/max values from an object. But the nice thing about commons-validator is that it doesn't take much work to write your own reusable validation action that supports your custom use cases. Basically, you just write a validation method that uses <var-name> and <var-value> values to get the bean's method name to call and configure your validation method in validation.xml as a <validator>.
