Re: validator form not working

[Erik Weber]

Somewhere along the line I learned that arg1 has to go with minlength, 
and arg2 has to go with maxlength. I could be wrong, but, I have success 
using it this way. Here is an example of minlength and maxlength:

    <field property="username" depends="required,minlength,maxlength">
       <arg0 key="label.username"/>
       <arg1 name="minlength" key="${var:minlength}" resource="false"/>
       <arg2 name="maxlength" key="${var:maxlength}" resource="false"/>
       <var>
         <var-name>minlength</var-name>
         <var-value>8</var-value>
       </var>
       <var>
         <var-name>maxlength</var-name>
         <var-value>20</var-value>
       </var>
     </field>
Notice that I put minlength first, as arg1, and maxlength second, as 
arg2. I also notice that you are repeating arg1, where I think you want 
arg1 and then arg2.

Hope that helps.
