Hi Mike, The backing bean method would work, but I was looking for something that would operate within the jsf validation life cycle. At least as far as I know, my backing beans are not called until all other controls have been validated; unless there's a technique I am unfamiliar with (and there are many). But this two stage validation would probably be OK.
I haven't used sandbox before, I'll have to check it out. Thanks for your help, Joe -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/many-components-to-one-%28or-more%29-validation--tf2081866.html#a5737916 Sent from the MyFaces - Users forum at Nabble.com.
