> I am trying to write a form with zip/postal code, which needs to be 
> validated. 
> The validation is based on country.  So if it's a US zip code, the form should
> be "ddddd-dddd" or "ddddd".  If it's a Canada postal code, the form should be
> "a1b 2c3".  And if it's another country's postal code, we will allow any kind 
> of
> input.
> So according to struts manual, the formset with no locale specifications is 
> set
> to be the default locale.  So I created 3 validation xml files:
> /WEB-INF/validation_en_US.xml, /WEB-INF/validation_en_CA.xml,
> /WEB-INF/validation.xml.
> Here is what I found: when I set en_CA as my country, Canadian's postal zip 
> will
> be correctly validated.  When I set any other country as my country, the
> validation rule will be either from validation_en_US.xml or validation.xml,
> depending on which validation xml file is being put in the struts-config.xml
> first.  So I debugged code of ValidatorPlugIn's code and figured that the 2
> formsets (default and en_US) are both considered as value of the key "en_US" 
> in
> the formset FashHashMap.
> And another thing I found for the validation xml files is that as much as
> country information is the only thing I will need for the zip code 
> validation. 
> I just have to enter the language attribute in the formset tag.  So instead of
> using <formset country="CA">, I will have to specify the language for this for
> the formset.  This is kind of awkward.  Because it's not necessary a user
> viewing our website is set his/her lauguage to be the same as the formset
> setting, although he/she could be in US/Canada.  It looks like struts has a 
> much
> better message search rule than validation search rule.
> I am pretty sure I can fix all this by overriding the ValidatorPlugin class.  
> I
> just want to try my luck to see if the developers of the struts considering 
> this
> as a bug or I actually mis-configged anything.
