Tim,
To me, this seems like a simple validation method and a field-level
validation in your action:
@Validate( required = "true" )
private String prospectcode;
@Validate( on="whatever" )
public void validatePostCodeAndLastName( ValidationErrors errors )
{
if ( postcode == null && lastname == null )
{
errors.add( new SimpleError( "postcode or lastname must be provided.") );
}
else if ( postcode != null && lastname != null )
{
errors.add( new SimpleError( "Please provide either postcode or
lastname -- not both." ) );
}
}
