Hi Hasan, I read your blog and was quite pleased after reading it. It it possible to share the code? It will be nice if you can zip it up in a small sample project. It can be very simple and Form may have just one required field that uses JSF validator. Later , we can enhance it to support other use cases. I am sure it will help several others using JSF.
Appreciate your help. Thanks, Sanjay On 3/20/07, Hasan Turksoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

By default, JSF will add the ID of the field into message as parameter and send it... you can only override the same message key (as you did)... your removing required="true" doesn't matter.. Because commonsvalidator(type="required") already set it inside.. This means; in either way, JSF's required validator message will be shown.. I have faced with the same problem and found a solution by removing both required="true" and commonsvalidator's required attribute setting code... So, how will required attribute work? I have implemented a workaround for this problem... Basically, remove the required="true" and write a component that will find the "required" commonsvalidators and call the validate method for them... For a detailed explanation of problem, JSF's working and found alternative solution, you can look at this blog< http://www.jroller.com/page/hasant?entry=jsf_bypassable_client_and_server> (under "Bypassing serverside required validation" title). Althogh that blog is about bypassing validations, it is suggesting a solution for your case too... hasan... On 3/20/07, Sanjay Choudhary <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
