> CLONE -Client side validation in xhtml template and clearErrorMessages not
> working in firefox with hidden fields
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: WW-2409
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2409
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Plugin - Tags
> Affects Versions: 2.0.11
> Environment: Firefox and IE
> Reporter: Lee Cheng Wei
> Assignee: James Holmes
> Priority: Minor
>
> The method clearErrorMessages in the xhtml client side validation template
> (template/xhtml/validation.js) fails in firefox. This results in the error
> messages being duplicated each time the form is submitted.
> The problem arises from the first three lines of code in the function:
> var table = form.childNodes[1];
> if( typeof table == "undefined" ) {
> table = form.childNodes[0];
> }
> This presumes that the first (or second) node of the form element is the
> field table. However in firefox hidden fields within a form are moved in the
> DOM to the top of its children. Thus wherever you put the hidden elements in
> the form they appear in the DOM at the top. The same problem does not occur
> in internet explorer or if no hidden fields are present. I have not tried
> other browsers.
> I have replaced these three lines with the patch:
> // get field table
> var table;
> for (var i = 0; i < form.childNodes.length; i++){
> if (form.childNodes[i].tagName != null &&
> form.childNodes[i].tagName.toLowerCase() == "table"){
> table = form.childNodes[i];
> break;
> }
> }
> if (table == null){
> return;
> }
> This solves the problem.
