The Validator has some concept with the page attribute. If you look at the "Multi Page Form" section you get a hint at it: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/dev_validator.html
In your jsp you need an element called page. I usually just put a static hidden tag: <html:hidden property="page" value="2"/> Then in your validation.xml you associated a page number with the element: <field property="user.firstName" depends="required" page="2"/> So what the validator does is only validate the field if the page attribute is >=. So for this example above... The "user.firstName" field would NOT be validated on page 1, but would be validated on page 2, page 3, etc. -Jordan Reed (http://www.chaosserver.net) On 6/13/03 5:40 AM, "Gregory F.
