Miles, Validation based on actions has that slash-in-the-name related problem. You can specify a name for the validation method using the html:javascript attribute method="...". Just be sure to change your html:form's onsubmit to invoke that new method name. For example:
<html:javascript formName="/someActionName" method="validateForm" /> <html:form action="..." ... onsubmit="return(validateForm(this));"> Just use the name "validateForm" or change it to any valid JavaScript method name of your choice.

Hi All, Apologies if this one has already been covered (I searched the list). I am using struts 1.1 with one DynaValidatorActionForm for holding data from multiple jsp forms (wizard style reg form). The server side validation works fine but the generated javascript is broken. The name of the form validating function is taken directly from the form name attribute in the form-validation formset (validation.xml), and this contains '/' characters because it is the path to the relevant action. Is this a bug, or am I misusing/misunderstanding something? Thanks. -Miles Miles Daffin Morgan Stanley 20 Cabot Square | Canary Wharf | London E14 4QA | UK Tel: +44 (0) 20 767 75119 [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -------------------------------------------------------- NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender.
