First, PhoneNumber is deprecated and you should use formencode.national.USPhoneNumber or formencode.national.InternationalPhoneNumber. Second, forcing a validator to only accept non-empty values is done via myvalidator_instance = myvalidator( not_empty=True ) HTH, Daniel -- Psss, psss, put it down! - http://www.cafepress.com/putitdown --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
