Hi,
I am using struts validator plugin. I have form field which requires
following validation:
"Full Name can contain only letters, dashes (-), apsotrophes(') and
single spaces"Here is the regex I am using for this validation : ^[a-zA-Z'-\s]*$ The only problem with this regex is that it allows user to enter more than one consecutive blank space in the field. So I landed up putting the check for double space in the Struts Form bean Validate method.
Dividing the validation in two parts has created a scenario when some time user see the same error message twice because validation failed in plugin as wells in form validate method.
For the time being I have changed the two message little bit so user is not confused. But I would like to show only one message irrespective of where the validation failed.
Any Ideas ?
Thanks for help!
