Hi, I have a t:inputText in a form which uses displayValueOnly="true" so that non privelaged users cannot edit it but can see it. If I use <val:commonsValidator type="required" server="true" client="false"/> the form works well. When I change to client="true" it will not find the value for the inputText and block the request with an alert() telling me I need to supply a value for my field.
I believe this should be bypassed in these circumstances with either a hidden input or by ignoring the validator, like MyFaces does I believe. I can obviously solve this with adding both a <h:outputText> and a <h:inputText> and use rendered to toggle between the two, but I like the elegance of displayValueOnly. Any comments? Cheers, Joost
