One other thing to check, I think name="myForm" has to be type of
ValidatorActionForm, not the usual ValidatorForm.

Please respond to Does Javascript Validation work
"Struts Users with mapping path as key?
Mailing List"
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm trying to get javascript validation working using the action mapping's
path as the validation key with Struts 1.2.4.
I don't usually use js (I'm trying to test something) but the generated
javascript doesn't appear to work - from where I'm sitting it looks broken
-
can anyone confirm if they have it working or not?
I have the following mapping in my struts config:
<action path="/houseTypeAdd" type="....."
name="myForm" scope="request" validate="true" input="housetype.add">
...
</action>
And my jsp has the following form & javascript tags:
<html:form action="houseTypeAdd" focus="housetype_code"
onsubmit="return validateHouseTypeAdd(this);">
...
</html:form>
<html:javascript formName="houseTypeAdd" bundle="niall-1"/>
There are three fields defined as 'required' and it genertes a javascript
function called houseTypeAdd_required () - however when I put an alert in
the required.js script it seems to be trying to call function named after
the form rather than the mapping (i.e. myForm_required()) - so its using
the
form name rather than the mappings path.
Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong or confirm it doesn't work? Below is
relevant detail of the javascript being generated
Thanks
