+<p> <strong>Validating against the DTD in the commons-validator.jar. </strong></p>
+<p> Struts no longer maintains a seperate dtd for validator-rules.xml and
validator.xml.
+ Additionally, commons-validator now maintains a unified validator.dtd.
+ Change all validator.xml DTD references to:
+<ol><pre>
+ <!DOCTYPE form-validation PUBLIC
+ "-//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Commons Validator Rules Configuration
1.0//EN"
+ "http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/dtds/validator_1_0.dtd">
+</pre></ol>

+<p> <strong>Conditionally required fields. </strong></p>
<p>
The most fundamental change is the ability to conditionally
require validator fields based on the value of other fields.
