I added some things to testBOOKSListAutoUpdate.jsp: <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/dbforms.tld" prefix="db" %> <html> <head> <db:base/> </head> <body> <db:dbform multipart="false" autoUpdate="true" followUp="/tests/testBOOKSListAutoUpdate.jsp" javascriptValidation="true" formValidatorName="book" maxRows="*" tableName="BOOK"> <db:header> <db:errors/> <table> </db:header> <db:body allowNew="true"> <tr> <td><db:dataLabel fieldName="BOOK_ID"/> </td> <td><db:textField fieldName="ISBN"/> </td> <td><db:textField fieldName="AUTHOR_ID"/> </td> <td><db:textField fieldName="TITLE"/> </td> <td> <db:deleteButton style="width:55" caption="Delete" confirmMessage="Really?"/> </td> </tr> </db:body> <db:footer> <tr> <td><db:textField hidden="true" fieldName="BOOK_ID"/> </td> <td><db:textField fieldName="ISBN"/> </td> <td><db:textField fieldName="AUTHOR_ID"/> </td> <td><db:textField fieldName="TITLE"/> </td> <td> <db:insertButton showAlways="true" caption="Add New"/> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="4" align="center"> <db:updateButton caption="update" /> </td> </tr> </table> </db:footer> </db:dbform>
<%@ include file="httpSnooper.jsp" %> </body> </html> And added this to validation.xml: <form name="book"> <field property="TITLE" depends="required"> <msg name="required" key="field name required" resource="false"/> </field> </form> This does js validation on Update, but not on Add New or Delete. On Add or Delete, the operation is performed and then updates are attempted. There is server-side validation, but the error messages are just displayed at the top with no clue on where the errors come from. Is there a way to have validation done in js on the client for all cases?
