xhtml form-close-validate.ftl template has incorrect regex validation
---------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WW-1419
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-1419
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Views
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Josh Foure


In the template/xhtml/form-close-validate.ftl template, this is the code for 
the regex validation:

            if (field.value != null && 
!field.value.match("${validator.expression?js_string}")==null) {
                addError(field, error);
                errors = true;
            }

Either the exclamation point in front of "field.value.match(...)" should be 
removed or the "==null" after the match call should be removed.  The problem 
with having the "!" and the "==null" is that the left side will evaluate to a 
boolean but any boolean compared to null is false.

This is what the code looks like in WebWorks 2.2.3 (they don't have the 
"==null"):

            if (field.value != null && 
!field.value.match("${validator.expression?js_string}")) {
                addError(field, error);
                errors = true;
            }
